Ian Abbiss, from St John’s Ambulance, visited us to deliver a scenario-based and hands-on Street First Aid session. Students learned crucial skills such as how to put a friend in the recovery position, how to create a tourniquet and how to administer CPR. Everyone participated with such enthusiasm!

‘I learnt a lot in a fun and interesting way.’

‘It was helpful and now I know how to help my friends and family.’

Some of our KS4 pupils in the Maples have just had their passing out parade after successfully completing an 11-week level 1 resilience programme with Durham County and Darlington Fire Brigade which was sanctioned by the Durham Police and Crime commissioner. This was completed at the Spennymoor fire station. Well done!
