Sign up for 12hr paediatric blended first aid

Calne based Wiltshire First Aid Training provides a course in 12hr paediatric blended first aid, which is ideal for schools, nurseries and nannies in the South West.

Nursery school

Paediatric blended learning

At Wiltshire First Aid Training we offer a 12hr paediatric blended first aid course. This course also meets the requirements of Ofsted, Department for Education and EYFS but the difference with this course compared to the 12-hour Paediatric First Aid course is 6-hours is based in the classroom and 6-hours of the theoretical part of the course is completed as study online at a time to suit you.

​

This is a popular choice and beneficial for both beginners and those who have attended numerous paediatric first aid courses in the past and wish to refresh their knowledge and skills. Completion of the online part can be done at a time and pace to suit you and has lots of useful resources that are downloadable.  
 

We also appreciate the potential cost implications incurred when there is abstraction from your normal place of work and therefore a paediatric blended course may be of greater benefit to you. The online part is completed prior to the face-to-face session, which has been approved by the First Aid Industry Body. Work can be saved so it doesn't have to be completed in one sitting.
