Synopsis It has been rightly said by Kothari Commission that destiny of a nation is shaped in her class-rooms. Schools can play an important role in promoting society's health. Much effort has been invested over recent years in health education techniques for schools in low-income communities, including child-to-child methods, curriculum development and the production of locally appropriate education materials. Health Education as a means to improve the quality of life by helping people to acquire health by their own efforts within available resources has been accepted by all. For this reason it has been duly emphasized in both the National Health Policy and National Education Policy. In developing countries, school-age children form a sizable portion of the total population of these countries. As such, inclusion of Health Education as part of core curriculum from class I to X in the National Curriculum for Primary and Secondary Education by the National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) is a significant step. School Health Education is an attempt to lay the foundation of the country through the health, vitality, character and general education of the students. This book would be beneficial to policy-makers, planners, implementer of elementary and secondary education. School faculty would be benefited most as once they start taking interest in children's health, they would be doing an excellent work, as health is wealth. School health would promote family and social health as the children would act change agents.
