First Aid
At Sherwood, we are committed to ensuring the health and safety of all staff, pupils and visitors. All staff at Sherwood Primary School undertake first aid training to ensure that we can respond quickly and appropriately to an incident should it arise. First aid is immediate temporary care for a pupil, member of staff or visitor who is ill or injured, with the intention of supporting the patient emotionally, preventing an injured or ill person’s condition from worsening and preserving life. This may include treating minor injuries or taking charge where an injury or illness requires further treatment by a medical professional until the patient can be taken to hospital.
At Sherwood, we have two defibrillators, located in the School Hall and BASE.
