Welcome to Northamptonshire Healthy Schools
Home > Self Validation
Schools must meet the national criteria across the four core themes using the whole school approach In order to achieve National Healthy School Status.

The self-validation process was introduced to minimise the bureaucracy on schools wanting to apply for National Healthy Schools Status.
This means that schools are able to self certify to say that they have met the healthy schools criteria within a Quality Assurance framework. Further information is available in the NHSP Self Validation Step by Step Guide, available here.
