Certificates of registered First Aiders are on display in the office. 

There are at least two Paediatric First Aiders, one who is based in Butterfly Class (reception pupils)

First Aid boxes are located in each classroom and in the staff room. Their location is clearly indicated.

There is a defibrillator located outside the Reading Room. The code is kept on the information wall by the telephone.

We:

• ensure parental contact sheets are in the school office
• contact parents if a visit to hospital is necessary and notify the Administrative Officer who will contact the relevant Accident & Emergency Department and alert the child’s doctor
• take the child’s contact sheet to the hospital.

Pre-written notes covering minor injuries, to inform parents (accident notes) are located in the office and on the medical trolley. The first- aider dealing with an incident completes these forms. 

If a child sustains a head injury and/or sustained an injury fall from height, the class teacher ensures that the parents have been informed.

Accident forms are kept in the school office. Duty personnel fill in the forms when accidents occur. Minor accidents are noted in the accident book in the office.  All incidents (as required by Wiltshire LA policy), to be reported to them are made using the website reporting system.  On line forms are to be used for the recording of incidents/accidents and near misses in school using the advice and criteria below (see Wiltshire Right Choice for more details).
