What Healthy Schools awards are, what awards you can work towards and how we'll support you.

Our awards programme helps your school improve pupils' health and wellbeing. It's been developed by local health experts. 

The awards programme is free and available for all Bristol schools, including Special Schools and Alternative Learning Provision. 

There are 2 types of awards:

  • Essential: award sets the foundations for creating a healthy and happy school, centred around the whole school approach, it covers key health and wellbeing topics
  • Specialist: awards that focus on specific health and wellbeing needs and interventions

This means you can focus on different health and wellbeing topics as your school progresses through the awards programme, depending on what your pupils need. Once you achieve an award, it's valid for three years.
