HC Deb 30 July 1974 vol 878 cc124-5W
31. Dr. Glyn

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will issue a circular to local authorities advising them of the availability of voluntary organisations such as St. John Ambulance to give instructions in first aid both to teachers in maintained schools and students in teacher training establishments, in order to facilitate co-operation between teachers' representatives and the voluntary organisations and to ensure maximum use of such facilities.

Mr. Armstrong

In several of the Department's publications about safety in schools there is reference to the assistance which the voluntary first-aid organisations can provide in first aid training; copies of these publications are sent to local education authorities and teacher training establishments.
