First Aid in Schools - Teach the Difference

Every year, up to 150,000 people die in a situation where first aid could have given them a chance to live (SJA, No Date). St John Ambulance have recently released a brilliant resource 'Teach the Difference' which shows teachers how they can incorporate the teaching of life saving First Aid skills into the National Curriculum. They offer a variety of free resources including lesson plans, powerpoints and worksheets.
