The most recent challenges in health could be tackled by incorporating health education at all levels of learning. This is in tandem with the new global health policy aimed at combating these challenges and developed by the World Health Organization. Health can be created and sustained in schools since most young people are highly vulnerable to particular risks. These include drug and substance abuse, sexually transmitted diseases, poor feeding habits and dangerous relationships that may severe their psychological and mental wellbeing. Schools influence the perception, attitudes, actions and behaviour of young people. This paper seeks to clarify and enforce the need of health education in every level of education. It is based on health promoting social models. The young person is the heart of these models in a dynamic environment. The objectives of this paper include the role of individual and group decisions in sustaining healthy behaviour, reinforcing protective factors and reducing harmful perceptions amongst students.
