Schools are identified as a key setting for health promotion in the UK Government's consultation report on the public health strategy for England. The concept of the 'healthy' or 'health promoting school' provides the basis for a broad settings approach to health promotion in schools. The approach extends beyond the formal health education curriculum to include a consideration of the physical and social environment of schools and their links and partnerships with parents and the wider community, in pursuit of better health. There is growing evidence that the health promoting school approach is effective in influencing outcomes related to health and education. Initiatives in the form of projects and schemes are commonly used by Health Promotion Specialist services and health partnerships, to stimulate and support the adoption of the approach by schools. A national healthy school scheme is to be launched alongside these local initiatives in 1999. The paper reviews research and practice in this area and makes recommendations to inform the future development of schools as health promoting organizations.
在英国政府关于英格兰公共卫生战略的咨询报告中，学校被视为健康促进的关键场所。“健康”或“促进健康的学校”这一概念为在学校中广泛开展健康促进工作提供了基础。该方法不仅涵盖正规的健康教育课程，还包括对学校的物理和社会环境以及它们与家长和更广泛社区的联系与合作关系的考量，以追求更健康的状态。越来越多的证据表明，促进健康的学校方法在影响与健康和教育相关的成果方面是有效的。健康促进专业服务机构和健康伙伴关系通常采用项目和计划等形式的举措，来激励和支持学校采用这种方法。1999年将在这些地方举措的基础上推出一项全国性的健康学校计划。本文回顾了该领域的研究和实践，并提出建议，为学校作为促进健康的组织的未来发展提供参考。
