Public Health Projects

Through our project work we aim to develop the superb healthy schools work that schools are already engaged in, to widen and deepen this work and take innovative ideas forward.

Since 2009, the Healthy Schools Plus Pilot Project has enabled 50% of schools in Swindon to work on projects that support identified health priorities with an overall aim of reducing health inequalities.

Schools have worked on one or more of the following areas:

  • Healthy Weight
  • Emotional Health and Well Being
  • Teenage Pregnancy/Sexual Health
  • Smoking

All schools involved in the project have ensured that some of this work has been targetted at the most vulnerable groups in their settings.  All school sectors are represented in the project and we are particularly proud of our special schools who are all taking part.
