Irish Red Cross First Aid Training

irish red cross first aid training

A century and a half ago, an ambitious idea became reality with the establishment of the ICRC and relief Societies, known today as National Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies. The Red Cross Movement, with 97 million members worldwide, is the largest humanitarian aid organisation in the world today. It was founded by Swiss business man Henri Dunant following the battle of Solferino in northern Italy in 1859, which saw over 40,000 people killed or wounded. Horrified by the anguished cries of the war-wounded left to suffer and die on the battlefield (many of whom pleaded for the coup de grace), Dunant organised help from the nearest village, Solferino. The wounded, from both sides, were ferried to makeshift hospitals in local homes and barns. Dunant returned to Geneva where he penned his account of the battle in "A Memory of Solferino", urging people to set up voluntary relief societies to deal with the hardship of war. His book led to the foundation of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC). This organisation was established by Dunant and four Geneva businessmen in 1863. The following year, the first Geneva Convention for the alleviation of the conditions of the wounded in armies in the field was adopted, together with the emblem of the Red Cross on a white background. The principles and aims of the ICRC were replicated in National Societies around the world with members trained in First Aid and emergency care. It was decided that the ICRC should continue to be run by Swiss nationals. After World War I it was decided that National Societies should form their own umbrella group also based in Geneva - this was known as the League of Red Cross Societies but today is called the Federation of Red Cross & Red Crescent Societies (IFRC). The Irish Red Cross Society is a member of the IFRC which has 192 member societies around the world.

Welcome to The Education Partnership. Please take a look around our website and see what we can offer you. Bill is chairman of The Education Partnership, which has for the past twenty years provided a truly comprehensive range of governance and compliance expertise to schools, colleges, and outdoor education activity centres. He was previously a Head Teacher of all-age boarding and day schools in the maintained and independent sectors, including those for children with complex learning and behavioural needs. Bill works with proprietors and Head Teachers in preparation for and following up inspections by Ofsted (Education and Social Care) and ISI (Regulatory Compliance and Education Quality). His expertise in this area covers NMS, RSS, dual registration, initial registration, final registration and material change. Bill also works with schools judged as “inadequate” by Ofsted or “unsatisfactory” by ISI, helping them to achieve “good”, “outstanding” and “excellent” Ofsted or ISI outcomes. Bill is approached by an increasing number of proprietors, chairs of trustees and headteachers, who find themselves in challenging circumstances. This includes schools that have received a warning notice from the Department for Education due to their failure to meet the Independent School Standards Regulations (ISSR) and/or the National Minimum Standards (NMS) for boarding and residential special schools. Consistently, these schools see improvements at subsequent inspections. Currently, Bill is undertaking a longitudinal study of independent proprietorial schools, examining the governance implications of compliance and external inspection outcomes. To this end, we are looking for proprietorial schools in England for whom we could undertake a free of charge one-day compliance health check in return for participating in a confidential semi-structured interview on this subject at the end of the day. If you would be interested in taking up this offer, or would like a PDF of the second edition of this research, please contact billbrown@edpa.org.uk

About Ever since we opened our doors in 1993 we’ve provided cost-effective recruitment solutions for schools and helped teachers find their dream jobs. We love what we do but more importantly, we’re good at it, which is why 24 years down the line and 11 offices later, we’re still going strong. We’ve placed thousands of education professionals in permanent and temporary positions nationwide into our partner schools. We also have the Pertemps Network Group to thank for our success, as due to our collaboration and their many years of experience, we have been able to follow suit and offer high quality recruitment solutions to the wider education sector. We’re all about education and we pride ourselves on our amazing family of specialist consultants who share the same passion. In fact, many of our consultants come from teaching backgrounds, so you can trust that they know exactly what they’re doing, as they know first-hand about the demands of working in education. That is why support, advice and a friendly ear is guaranteed when you choose us. We’re unlike any other agency - we really don’t care for targets and we certainly won’t treat you like a number. We get to know each and every one of our teachers and schools individually, as not only do we value loyalty and long-lasting relationships above all but by getting to know you it helps us do our job to an even higher standard, meaning everyone is happy! If it’s not teaching staff that you’re after, we can provide non-teaching candidates to schools including but not limited to finance, office admin and support. All educators we supply have surpassed safeguarding standards in line with APSCo’s Compliance+ standard since 2013. We have many alternative establishments for our teachers too, so if you don’t fancy working in a mainstream school, we have nurseries, colleges and other educational establishments across the UK waiting for you.
