Healthy Schools
The National Healthy Schools Programme is an exciting, long term initiative that helps young people and their schools to be healthy. Healthy Schools help children and young people to reach their potential by building on a solid foundation of health to do better in learning and in life.
The Programme isn’t just about physical health, it’s about good health and happiness inside and out. And it’s not just about pupils either; a Healthy School involves the whole school community – from parents to governors to school staff – in improving their health and their happiness and getting the most out of life.
There are four, core themes for healthy schools. To find out more about what your school should be doing for you, follow this link to the detailed info on what each theme involves.
