At Busy Bees Global Preschool, children’s safety is always our top priority. Each year, teaching and non-teaching staff across our campuses participate in mandatory first aid training sessions to reinforce practical skills and improve their ability to respond effectively and accurately to emergency situations in preschool settings.


In our most recent training, the programme was structured around real-life medical scenarios that teachers may encounter in early years environments. From respiratory arrest, unconsciousness, and airway obstruction, to nosebleeds, seizures, and minor external injuries all situations were thoroughly practised using child-specific medical manikins designed to replicate the physiological characteristics of young children.



Teachers were instructed directly on essential emergency techniques, such as internationally standardised CPR procedures, age-appropriate back blows and abdominal thrusts (Heimlich manoeuvre) to relieve choking, and the proper response to nosebleeds or minor bleeding. More importantly, each technique was embedded with the principle of staying calm and acting swiftly two critical elements to ensure maximum safety for young children during unexpected incidents.





These training sessions not only enhance professional competencies, but also boost the confidence and readiness of teachers to safeguard their students with responsibility, professionalism, and genuine care. This initiative is a vital component of the comprehensive professional development programme at Busy Bees, aiming to cultivate a safe, secure, and high-quality early childhood education environment for every child.
