CPR 4 SCHOOLS
Athlone Community College Receives CPR 4 Schools Heroes Award
Athlone Community College is proud to announce that we have been awarded the CPR 4 Schools Heroes Award in recognition of our longstanding commitment to equipping students with essential, life-saving skills.
The CPR 4 Schools Programme has been an integral part of our Transition Year curriculum for over a decade. Each year, all Transition Year students are given the opportunity to complete training in compression-only CPR, earning their official CPR certificate.
Over the years, hundreds of our students have been trained, not only gaining critical knowledge but also building the confidence to respond effectively in emergency situations.
We have found the programme to be highly accessible for both staff and students, and it continues to generate strong levels of engagement and enthusiasm across the year group.
We are honoured to receive this national recognition and remain committed to empowering our students with skills that can save lives—today, tomorrow, and into the future.
