Wiltshire Healthy Schools

The Wiltshire Healthy Schools Programme is a brand new approach to promoting health and wellbeing.

Following on from the immensely successful and popular National Healthy Schools Programme (NHSP) and Healthy Schools Plus, Wiltshire Healthy Schools combines the best elements of both in a new, exciting format.

As of March 2011, 97% of Wiltshire schools had achieved National Healthy Schools Status, which is a tremendous achievement. As this programme has now closed down, the Wiltshire Healthy Schools programme has been developed to help schools re-affirm their commitment to the whole school approach and provides an opportunity to make measurable improvements to the health behaviours of children and young people by addressing their health needs and also those of the local community the school serves.

Schools can opt to take part in Wiltshire Healthy Schools at three levels: Bronze, Silver and Gold
