Question to the Department for Education:
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many schools provide first aid training to all pupils in (a) York and (b) UK.
The information requested is not held centrally.
Schools can teach emergency first aid and life-saving skills in a variety of ways, for example through the wider curriculum, assemblies or personal, social, health and economic (PSHE) education. Schools are able to draw on curriculum materials from expert organisations such as the PSHE Association and free teaching kits such as those from the British Heart Foundation.
