First Aid Training Completed For All!!
As such a forward facing profession you could be forgiven for not understanding the hard work and dedication that goes on behind the scenes by our tribe. Every term we sit and make plans that support elements of safeguarding, staff development and children's development and working with you guys parents to support our goals in supporting all children to make the best progress. Many of these include having high expectations for our staff team.
Did you know that we follow the Early Years Foundation stage guidance, which gives us a set of values that we can work towards and inform our practice. Some of these values are statutory and others are a well-could be good practice to do so situation.
One of these values is regarding First Aid Training. Did you know it is only statutory to have one qualified first aider on the premises at any one time?
Well not at Pollington Preschool, our educators and tribe are all expected to complete a 12 hour Paediatric first aid course as soon as they join our team- woo hooo!! The health and well-being of our children is paramount at all times and we believe that all of our tribe hold this life saving qualification. All our educators are qualified to deal with accidents and injuries and manage the associated reporting procedures to safeguard the children whilst they come to play.
So we are proud to announce that in November, the second group of our educators completed Paediatric First Aid Refresher training, with PROFirst Aid Training.
Congratulations and thank you to our dedicated team of Educators on your achievement!!
