Moffat Academy Case Study

Constant drive for health improvement

The key points to this case study are:

• whole school approach
• sexual health
• evaluation.

Moffat Academy is a combined primary and secondary school in which there is also a nursery. It also caters for children with specific learning difficulties. The school serves the burgh and the valleys of Upper Annandale and Eskdale.

With many health promotion activities taking place in Moffat Academy the focus of this case study is the use of Health Weeks to lay the foundation for health promotion and the use of small workshops with S3 to cover the topic of contraception.
