New Partner Resources for Schools
The Change4Life and Rise Above for Schools programmes have been off to a busy start this academic year, with a number of exciting new resources that you can share with your local schools:
- for the first time, Change4Life has created dental lesson plans to support primary school teachers in educating their pupils about how to keep their teeth healthy
- in recent weeks, Our Healthy Year calendar wallcharts have been sent to Reception and Year 6 classes in England. The wallcharts will get pupils eating well and moving more in the year in which they participate in the National Child Measurement Programme
- a new Rise Above for Schools resource has been created to help prepare secondary school students for puberty and support teachers in starting conversations about this sensitive subject.
Coming soon:
- Rise Above for Schools teaching resources to help students cope with change
- A suite of new Change4Life resources launching in January to help primary school teachers, pupils and their families learn more about nutrition and eating well.
