Monday 2 February 2026 Year 13 Personal Development Day - CPR training One of the most impactful parts of the day was the CPR in Schools training, delivered by an outstanding team from Plymouth NHS Trust. This was not a pre‑recorded session or standard training pack — it was delivered in person by real NHS doctors and consultants, several of whom work in emergency medicine and acute care. Despite their incredibly demanding schedules, these medical professionals volunteered their own time and days off to ensure our students could gain essential lifesaving skills.

The students were an absolute credit to Tavistock College and represented the student body brilliantly throughout the day. The Diana Award Anti-Bullying initiative is a nationally recognised programme that empowers young people to take the lead in tackling bullying by promoting kindness, inclusion and positive behaviour change within schools and communities.
