Rejected petition Make full first aid courses in school compulsory

I feel that first aid is a valuable skill used to save lives. It is quite scary how many people don't know about basic first aid and how many people could die because no one around them don't know the correct first aid. In school we did 30 minutes on CPR and nothing else and I didn't understand it.

More details

If it wasn't for me joining the cadets I wouldn't know anything about most first aid.
