FRESH Approach to School Health Programme
The major strategies to enhance the development, realization and sustainability of the school health programme are good planning, administration and evaluation. These strategies can be further broken into the following specifics:
(i) Written school health programme: Policies and guidelines for the implementation of the policy should be in place.
(ii) Adequate funds and facilities: Political commitment, financial and technical support should be readily available.
(iii) School health coordinator: It is essential to have one directly in charge in a coordinating capacity. Mechanical, dental, nursing, and other consultants should be available.
(iv) Capacity building: In-service education for all health personnel should be encouraged to be up-to-date in health matters.
(v) Partnership and collaboration: All the stakeholders must work as a team while implementing their areas of role.
