On Monday 20th November Members of school staff, as well as representatives from the Parish, attended Staff Meeting training on the recently purchased AED (Automated External Defibrillator).

We were updated on what to do in case of Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) and Heart Attack. The resuscitation ‘dummies’ were out for staff to practise on.

We also got to see the defibrillator in action – it increases chances of survival of a Cardiac Arrest from 12% to 70%. Our trainer, who has delivered other training to Lunchtime Supervisors and First Aid Staff was very excited we had taken the steps to purchase.

Thank you to all those who raised funds / donated to allow us and the Parish to purchase this life-saving equipment.
