What is a Health Promoting School?

The resource showcases 10 Western Australian schools who have adopted a successful Health Promoting Schools framework within their school. These schools understand that using a Health Promoting School framework is widely recognised as best practice, promoting a positive approach to student’s health and wellbeing. Reading about the experiences of these schools through their case studies will outline the steps that guided them in their efforts to become a genuine Health Promoting School.
