All schools are different, so we have gathered ideas from our CPR schools on tried and tested ways to deliver the CPR 4 Schools Programme.
All schools are different, so we have gathered ideas from our CPR schools on tried and tested ways to deliver the CPR 4 Schools Programme.
Once you have completed the CPR 4 Schools teacher training we recommend starting training in your school as soon as possible. All you need is a class, the videos and your manikins.
Take some time to prepare
Check out the videos and the Teacher Guide. Take out a manikin and practice alongside the video to increase your confidence.
Get your classroom ready and test the videos on the whiteboard.
Teaching CPR 4 Schools
Play the videos and follow the Teacher Guide.
Have student take turns. This gives students the opportunity to rest in between practice sessions and to learn by observing others in their class.
Remember, the Irish Heart Foundation are here to help. If you would like to run any ideas by us or get some advice just email schools@irishheart.ie.
Next Steps
Once you have delivered a CPR class you can think about expansion lessons and CPR awareness. You might even like to start building plans to train the whole school. You’ll find lots of great ideas on our Teacher Portal.
Recommend the training to your colleagues – We run training throughout the school year. Get some support within your school and invite your colleagues to complete the CPR 4 Schools teacher training.
