That the Parliament welcomes the official launch of the Scottish Primary School First Aid Programme by St Andrew’s First Aid, Scotland’s dedicated first aid charity; acknowledges that the programme provides free and easily accessible online teaching resources to enable all primary school teachers in Scotland to deliver first aid education from P1 to P7; recognises that this national rollout follows a successful multi-year pilot with Stirling Council, during which 56 teachers across 31 schools were trained; understands that the initiative aims to create a new generation of confident and capable first responders; further welcomes the development of the St Andrew’s Framework for Education (SAFE), which will recognise schools’ commitment to first aid and community care through Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum awards, and commends St Andrew’s First Aid on its work to improve emergency preparedness and resilience across Scotland’s communities.
