Learning life-saving skills

Pupils in Year 9 and Year 10 at pupils at Chetwynde School have gained life-saving skills as part of a course delivered in school by Furness First Aiders as part of the PSHE curriculum.

Students in Year 9 received training in CPR using a defibrillator whilst students in Year 10 completed the nationally-recognised Emergency First Aid at work qualification.

This includes managing an unresponsive casualty and administering first aid to a casualty with injuries including bones, head and spinal injuries, burns, anaphylaxis, and CPR.

A big thanks to trainers Barry and Andy who will be back to run a further course for Year 10s in November. #TeamChetwynde
