Description
All of our new Tailored Learning courses are matched to one of seven 'purposes' which have been designed by the Department for Education to recognise the wider benefits of learning.
This course will help build parenting skills and give you the confidence to support your children's learning.
This course is for any adult who may need to help an ill or injured child and will cover the basics of first aid to help in the case of a medical situation. You will learn how to use a defibrillator and how to resuscitate a child, how to deal with bleeding, burns and scalds and what to do if a child is choking or having a seizure.
Who is this course for?
This course is for you if you are a parent of a child that attends Etwall Primary School and may ever need to help an ill or injured child. Our courses are for people who live in Derbyshire aged 19 and over.
How will I learn?
This is a classroom-based course at Etwall Primary School. There will be practical activities with guidance from your tutor. The course will be a mix of tutor-led activities, individual work and group work. Your tutor will give you support and feedback so you know what to do to improve.
What will I need?
You may need to bend and kneel during the course so you should wear comfortable clothing. You may want to bring something to make notes.
Are there any other costs?
This course is free and there are no other costs.
