School Meals as a social construct
By: ,
Jan 3 2012, 11:59 AM EST
An article in Issue #4, 2011 of Critical Public Health demonstrates how a socio-ecological perspective was deployed during an exploratory study into the role of primary school dining halls in improving children's nutrition-related behaviour. This study revealed how policies at local and school levels reflected national objectives with respect to nutritional guidelines, but were also influenced by multiple, competing interests at other socio-ecological levels. These included pupils’ food preferences; organisational objectives such as protecting school meal uptake; and the practices of school meal staff. It is argued that higher level policy interventions may have limited effectiveness if undermined by lack of attention to lower level factors. The use of socio-ecological frameworks as theoretical, methodological and evaluative tools to support a consistent, holistic approach during the design, implementation and evaluation of health improvement policies is recommended.

Teacher Turnover and Health Education
By: ,

One of the problems associated with sustaining health education programs is teacher turnover. Some studies (there are few) indicate that health is often assigned to new entrants to the profession. So, it behooves us to examine teacher turnover. There are articles about teacher turnover in three of the journals reviewed this week in our SH Insider.

One of the values of our scanning many journals (currently over 155) for the SH Insider is that we identify articles in sources not normally seen by researchers, officials and practitioners outside of their respective interests. Several articles from Issue #3, 2011 of Child: Care, Health and Development illustrate this point, asa this journal on social work examines several aspects of physical activity and obesity. Go to:
