Written for education and health professionals, this guideline examines the organization and provision of health services through schools. It defines school health services, describes their potential scope and reviews the evidence used to develop a recommendation for comprehensive provision. The book considers how services can connect students with qualified health workers and with the wider health system.
A detailed menu of interventions covers health promotion, prevention, assessment, support and referral across a range of health needs. Other sections explain the development process, implementation considerations and priorities for further research. The complete 2021 publication retains its original tables, definitions, evidence summaries and references, providing a framework for professional planning and discussion.
