The Purpose of the Bristol Healthy Schools Programme is to promote children’s health in schools. Healthy children and young people learn better, so improving health will improve educational outcomes.

Bristol Healthy Schools works to facilitate health improvement.

This is achieved by supporting a whole school, participative, empowering approach to health which aims to improve:

• Healthy School Policies
• The physical and social environment of the school
• Individual pupils health knowledge and skills
• Community links and relationships
• Access to, and delivery of, health services.

The programme provides a universal and targeted service (tier 1 and tier 2), primary and secondary health prevention.
