Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. It impacts on many aspects of school life, from academic achievement to students’ behaviour, to social interaction among students or between students and staff. Likewise, various aspects of the school’s physical and social environment influence the well-being of individuals and groups who work in it on a daily basis. So a Quality health education programme is essential to promote the well-being of all individuals within our society. This book provides a comprehensive and in-depth analysis of the role of health and nutrition education in the physical, Mental and intellectual well being of students and in the improvement of educational outcomes.
