  • Title: Health promoting schools: issues and future directions for Australia and the Asia Pacific Region.
    Author: Rowling L, Ritchie J.
    Journal: Asia Pac J Public Health; ; 9():33-7. PubMed ID: 10050197.
    Abstract:
    This paper sets out to trace the development of health promoting schools in Australia and the Asia Pacific Region. An overview of conceptual frameworks pertinent to promoting health in school is presented, together with a justification for a focus on schools as settings for health. The challenge ahead for school communities is to move from the simple classroom-based topic focused old style health education, to the whole settings approach and the broad-ranging, comprehensive collection of actions that make up this wider view.
