Introduction

This qualification specification is designed to outline all you need to know to offer this qualification at your centre. If you have any further questions, please contact us here.

Qualification regulation and support

The Highfield Level 3 Award in Emergency Care for First Responders (RQF) has been developed and is awarded by Highfield Qualifications and sits on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF). The RQF is a qualification framework regulated by Ofqual. The qualification is also regulated by Qualifications Wales.

Guidance on assessment

This qualification is assessed by a combination of practical observation and multiple-choice question assessment.

Highfield has created assessment paperwork for each component, which are each graded pass/refer:

1) Practical observation
The practical assessment is completed throughout the course delivery. This ongoing assessment requires learners to demonstrate practical first aid skills through simulation, in response to scenarios set by the assessor. The practical assessment will be recorded using the practical matrix within the Assessment Pack, which is available to download from the Members’ Area of the Highfield website.

Guidance on minimum standards to be observed during the practical assessments is contained within the Tutor, Assessor and Internal Quality Assurance (TAI) Support Pack, which is also available to download from the Member’s Area of the Highfield website.

2) Centre-marked multiple-choice theory assessment
Learners are required to answer a 55-question multiple-choice question paper. The minimum pass mark for this is 39 out of 55 (approx. 70%).

Theory papers are marked by the centre using mark schemes provided by Highfield and will be subject to external moderation by Highfield as part of external quality assurance procedures. Question papers and mark schemes are available to download from the Members’ Area of the Highfield website.

The theory assessment must be undertaken in controlled conditions. This means:

  • books and other training aids must not be accessed by the learners
  • at least one authorised member of staff must be present in the assessment area while the assessment is being carried out
  • learners may complete the theory assessment in more than one sitting however the centre must collect the paperwork and hold it securely until the assessment recommences.

    For more information, please refer to the Highfield Qualifications Core Manual.

    Learners must achieve a pass in each element to pass the qualification. If a learner does not achieve
    70% in their multiple-choice theory assessment, a second paper should be issued to them to resit.

    Sample assessment materials are included within appendix 3 of this qualification specification. A full explanation of how to use the Highfield assessment paperwork is provided in the Tutor, Assessor and Internal Quality Assurance (TAI) Support Pack, available to download from the Members’ Area of the Highfield website.

    Centres must take all reasonable steps to avoid any part of the assessment of a learner (including any internal quality assurance and invigilation) being undertaken by any person who has a personal interest in the result of the assessment.

    Progression opportunities

    On successful completion of this qualification, learners may wish to continue their development by undertaking a specialist or higher-level qualification in first aid.
