Health Promoting Schools Research and Practice
Concepts and processes that underpin Health Promoting Schools (HPS) have evolved alongside international health promotion literature over the past 50 years.
New models, theories, guidelines, research, evaluations and exemplars of best practice are collated and shared internationally by a number of reputable organisations including the World Health Organisation. This space contains a range of case studies and research, from both New Zealand and overseas outlining effective HPS practice.
