Healthy Lifestyle


Our objective
To provide a lunchtime health centre within our school.

What we did
We worked in partnership with other children's services, including health, to provide a lunchtime health centre within the school. It is a multi-agency service, co-ordinated by a paid worker. Services include one-to-one sessions with the school nurse, the family planning nurse, leaflets and information, referrals.

How well it worked
The service is very well-accessed by both parents and young people. The key was to consider the whole community and think about who might provide services based on a school site.

Benefits we see
It has enabled the bringing together of providers from a range of sectors to provide a joined-up service to meet the needs of the community. It has also considerably raised the status of our school in the locality.
