Rejected petition Make CPR training compulsory in secondary schools

My two boys have recently had to administer cpr to their dad who was seriously ill and ended up ventilated in a medically induced coma. Thanks to their quick actions calling the ambulance service who then told them exactly what to do they were able to save their dads life.

More details

If they get taught this in school it could go on to save other people's lives.
