We have gained knowledge of:
* How to make a clear and efficient call to emergency services if necessary
* Concepts of basic first-aid, for example dealing with common injuries, including head injuries
* Lifesaving skills, including how to administer CPR
* The purpose of defibrillators and when one might be needed
During a visit and training from St Johns Ambulance our school was commended on its introduction of defibrillators to the curriculum as this is part of the new 2020 PSHE curriculum and our school was the first school they had visited to embed this.
Pupils have learnt rehearsal strategies through lots of role play, communication skills, ability to apply knowledge and how to assess risk to keep themselves and others safe. Personal attributes of assertiveness and confidence have been discussed and developed through this unit of study.
Mrs Foster and Miss Potts are very proud of the boys in Year 8 and the learning that has taken place. A big shout out goes to Tyler who has not only had 100% attendance during these lessons but is always the first to try something new, ask a question, answer a question and support his peers. An excellent attitude to learning in PSHE well done!
