Candidates should wear clothing that they feel comfortable with to support their learning while taking part in group discussions and practical sessions with other candidates.

We, therefore, recommend flat shoes, and trousers and to be cautious of baggy low tops.

There is no post-course learning for the Paediatric First Aid training course.

The Continual Professional Development is recommended to be a half day and we can focus the topics around the needs of your staff and your business.
Your staff may wish to access a debrief session following a serious incident in which they utilised their skills and need to discuss the actions they took.
As a regulated qualification there are assessments to ensure the candidates have reached the required standard. The practicals and resource materials will help prepare all candidates for the assessments.
There are two multi-choice papers and 7 practical assessments which are built into the day. The practical assessments are observed as individuals develop their skills through the course.
Successful candidates will be issued with an Ofqual regulated Level 3 Award in Paediatric First Aid qualification by the awarding body Qualsafe Awards.
Renewal
The qualification lasts for three years and can be renewed by resitting the Level 3 Paediatric First Aid training course.
We can deliver the training course at your venue which has a suitable training room or we can support you in arranging a suitable external venue. Training at your venue can save you costs but be aware staff can be distracted by day-to-day concerns..
Locations will require:
- Room big enough to sit 12 candidates to sit in a horseshoe
- Tables for group work and assessment at the end of the session
- Floor space to practise their first aid skills
- Projector and screen with computer connection, however, we can provide a projector with a laptop
While we will deliver our courses across the country, we focus on supporting local businesses in south Wales from Cardigan to Haverfordwest, Carmarthen, Swansea, Cardiff and Newport.
The course will have three planned breaks per day, including lunch. Refreshments are NOT included when delivered at one of your venues, but tea and coffee will be included when delivered at a venue arranged by ourselves.
The Paediatric First Aid training course involves various practical sessions, where candidates will need to get down to the floor to practise their first aid skills. This will include practising recovery position and demonstrating effective resuscitation for a minimum amount of time. If you have any concerns about your candidates carrying out these activities, you should get in touch before booking the course.
If candidates have any physical or learning needs for the group work or for the assessment, this should be notified as part of the booking. We may be able to provide reasonable adjustments to support candidates learning, but we need to agree on all adjustments in advance with the Awarding Body.
Age Guidance
