Why get involved?
 
  • The Kirklees Healthy School Standard Gold (KHSSG) aims to improve the social, mental and physical health of both staff and pupils.
  • Healthy children are more likely to fulfil their academic potential so academic results are likely to improve.
  • Staff who are consulted, and working in a healthy environment, are more likely to enjoy their job and feel more valued
  • A review of Ofsted school reports found that schools involved in the National Healthy School Standard (NHSS) are making improvements at a faster rate than schools nationally in several areas:
  • School will have the opportunity to celebrate positive things which are already happening
  • School will have to develop a whole school approach to all aspects of school life
  • You will be allocated a Kirklees Healthy School Consultant who will guide you through your work and offer you support and advice.
  • Kirklees Healthy Schools Gold supports other work in schools e.g. Every Child Matters, Eco Schools, Investors in Pupils etc
