In an age of fad diets, processed foods, body image issues, and widespread obesity, clichés like “You are what you eat” just aren’t enough to educate teens about smart eating.

Healthy Eating: A Guide to Nutrition is a new five-part educational DVD series that explores food-related issues with the energy, complexity, and engagement needed to reach today’s teenagers.

Using eye-catching animation sequences and commentary from nutritionists, dieticians, and trainers, this series of resources for classroom presentation and individual reference, conveys detailed, real-world knowledge about basic nutrition, weight management, physical fitness, eating disorders, and food safety.

Part 1: Basic Nutrition – free support guide available to view online

What exactly is nutrition and why is it important? What foods are healthy? What dietary choices are best? How exactly do different nutrients affect different parts of our body? And what happens when we do not consume all the nutrients we need?

The Index is an accessible, flexible and practical resource for school self-evaluation and improvement.

The review materials are organised around sets of indicators and questions.

The Index encourages staff, children and young people, families and communities to work together in reviewing all aspects of cultures, policies and practices in their school.

The Index draws together interventions in education to do with environmental sustainability, global citizenship, health promotion, democracy, values, rights and non-violence.
Index can help schools to:

put their own framework of values into action
create a detailed self-review and school improvement strategy
sustain the changes that are made
empower adults and children to voice their ideas
improve the school for staff as well as for children and families
minimise barriers to learning and participation
integrate work on community, global citizenship,
sustainability, rights, health and values
present to governors and inspectors a clear
rationale for development.

Staff in primary and secondary schools have found the Index useful as:

a tool for self evaluation
a means of engaging the whole school community
a resource for meeting the requirements of the new Ofsted Framework.
Schools have found the Index helpful on a range of issues, for example to:

improve pupil engagement with learning
increase pupil attendance
improve communication and relationships among staff, or between staff and parents or governors
develop links with other schools
enhance use of space
examine the curriculum.
