Healthy Schools Programme

The Haringey Healthy Schools Programme aims to improve the health and wellbeing of children and young people across the borough. It uses a whole-school approach and focuses on improving schools’ health-promoting environments, reducing health inequalities, and supporting pupils, staff and the wider community to develop healthy behaviours.

This scheme is sponsored by the Mayor of London as part of the London Healthy Schools Awards Programme.
