About Active Education

A teaching background.
A practical approach to first aid.

Led by Charlotte Jago, Active Education brings over 20 years of teaching experience to first aid training for businesses, schools and organisations.

First aid training
Clear explanations. Practical participation.
Meet Charlotte

An educator first.
A learner-focused approach.

Before Active Education, Charlotte spent more than 20 years in teaching. That experience shapes how she approaches first aid: making information understandable, involving learners and adapting delivery to the people in the room.

The focus is not simply on sharing information, but on helping people connect what they learn with the situations they may face in their own environment.

How learning comes together

Understand it.
Practise it. Build confidence.

Clear teaching and active participation work together. Explore the principles behind Charlotte’s approach.

Make the information clear

Charlotte draws on her teaching background to explain first aid clearly and relate learning to the group’s environment. The aim is to make the subject approachable, with room to ask questions and check understanding.

Take an active part

Practical participation is central to Active Education’s approach. Rather than only listening, learners have opportunities to engage with the training and put learning into practice.

Help learning feel usable

The focus is on building confidence as well as understanding. Customer feedback highlights the practical element of the training and how much more confident people felt afterwards.

Relevant to your organisation

Training that connects with your working day.

Different environments bring different needs. Training should reflect that.

Active Education works with businesses, schools and organisations, adapting delivery to the setting and the people taking part. Whether you are arranging a first aid qualification or bespoke awareness training, the starting point is understanding your requirements.

People learn differently

An individual approach.
Not a set of assumptions.

Charlotte has experience adapting training for neurodivergent learners, including groups with people with ADHD and autism.

That experience informs a flexible approach—not an assumption that a diagnosis tells you how someone learns. Individual needs and preferences matter, and can be discussed when arranging your training.

  • Start with the learner

    Consider the needs of the people taking part, rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all approach.

  • Adapt the delivery

    Keep explanations and practical participation responsive to the group and its environment.

  • Discuss needs early

    Share learning requirements when enquiring so Charlotte can discuss suitable adaptations with you.
