Teaching first aid
Free curriculum-linked teaching resources to teach life-saving first aid skills in schools to students and test their knowledge.
The British Red Cross created these free first aid teaching and learning resources to support first aid education and training in schools.
The 'First Aid Champions' resource is a free toolkit to teach first aid. Resources on the site teach first aid and explore kindness, safety, and wellbeing.
Are you looking for first aid teaching resources in the Welsh language? We have first aid skill learning pages on the First Aid Champions website in Welsh. Currently, our primary and secondary first aid skills pages are available in Welsh. To switch between English and Welsh, use the language toggle within the site.
