📚 Roma School Context
Roma Schools Serve Children with Complex Medical Needs
Roma's schools — including Roma State School, Roma State High School, Maranoa Christian College, St Joseph's School, and surrounding rural state schools — serve a community that includes children from remote stations, indigenous communities, and families working in agriculture and resources.
These children may have limited access to specialist medical care. Many rural Roma families are hours from paediatric hospitals. Anaphylaxis, asthma, epilepsy, and diabetes are common childhood conditions present in every classroom — and the first person to respond to a serious episode will almost always be a teacher or aide.
📋 Education Queensland First Aid Requirements
Under Education Queensland's health support planning policies and the Education (General Provisions) Act 2006, Queensland schools must have trained first aiders on site. Staff must be able to respond to medical emergencies relevant to enrolled students — including administering adrenaline auto-injectors, asthma reliever inhalers, and managing seizures. At least one first aider must be available whenever students are on school grounds.

Frequently Asked Questions
Education Queensland requires schools to have staff trained to respond to medical emergencies. For early childhood and primary settings, HLTAID012 (Education and Care Setting) is strongly recommended as it includes infant CPR, anaphylaxis auto-injector administration, and childhood-specific scenarios. HLTAID011 is the minimum standard for secondary school staff and general school employees.
Yes. We specialise in PD day delivery for Roma schools. We'll work with your principal or DP to schedule training that covers all or part of the staff. We can also deliver across two shorter sessions if needed. Contact us early in the year to secure your preferred PD day date.
While only one or two designated first aiders are required, Education Queensland strongly encourages all staff to hold first aid certification — because emergencies don't always happen when the first aid officer is present. For small rural Roma schools with minimal staff, having every teacher certified provides crucial coverage during yard duty, excursions, and split-site operations.
Absolutely. We encourage mixed groups of school staff — teachers, aides, admin, bus drivers, canteen staff — to train together. This builds shared understanding of your school's emergency procedures. We can accommodate everyone in one session and tailor scenarios to different roles within the session.
