Healthy Schools Partnership Planning and Reporting Tool
HSP Silver Award recognises good practice in supporting children and young people to achieve or maintain a healthy lifestyle and wellbeing. Schools should:
1. Have achieved the HSP Bronze Award
2. Undertake a needs analysis using data to identify action that will help to improve the health and wellbeing of their pupils.
Appendix 1: Examples of Needs Analysis and Sources of Data
3. Identify at least ONE universal and ONE targeted health priority and outcomes from the needs analysis based upon local health priority areas:
· The universal health priority and outcome would aim to impact on all pupils or the school community as a whole; and
· The targeted health priority and outcome would aim to impact on a specific group with a need that has been identified by the data.
4. Develop and implement an action plan:
· A school may design its own action plan which is linked to the School Improvement Plan or use the HSP templates below; and
· Establish SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, Time-bound) outcomes and success indicators for each health priority.
Appendices 2 to 4: Examples of actions to improve the health and wellbeing of pupils
Appendix 5: Example Action Plans
Support and validation:
· The Healthy Schools Coordinator will work with the school to plan/ implement action to achieve the HSP Silver Award.
· The school will self-validate & agree final validation for HSP Silver with the Tri- borough Healthy Schools Partnership.
· If a school selects healthy weight as one of its health priorities it will also qualify for the Healthy Schools London Silver Award.

Appendix 2: LBHF Summary of Children’s Trust Board C&YP priorities for 2012-2013
Introduction
· Hammersmith & Fulham’s vision for children and young people is to create a ladder of opportunity which enables young people to pursue purposeful and full lives, becoming responsible citizens who achieve economic wellbeing.
· The aim of this strategic plan for children is to capture the key priorities for children and young people in the borough under the headings of Health, Education and Safeguarding for the next three years.
· These priorities are shared and will be jointly responded to by all relevant agencies. The plan will ensure that needs that are particular to Hammersmith & Fulham continue to be prioritised as a number of services begin to be provided on a tri-borough basis. It will also inform commissioning arrangements for services for children and young people.
· The priorities of the plan have been developed in consultation with the multi-agency Children’s Trust Board and will be jointly monitored by relevant agencies.
· The plan’s priorities reflect the key areas of need and low performance identified through needs assessments such as the Children’s Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA) and national performance indicators. They also take account of the views of local professionals, children and young people who have been consulted during the plan’s development. Young people’s involvement and ensuring that we listen to the “voice of the child” will continue to be a key element of the plan as it is monitored over time. / · The plan focuses on three key areas of Health, Education and Safeguarding with a separate section regarding Child Poverty. Early Intervention (and Early Help) will be a significant component of all work carried out with children and their families in the borough. A key component of this will be to improve awareness of and access to a wide range of services using a range of approaches. This confirms an ongoing commitment to provide appropriate levels of support for children and young people with across a continuum of need.
The Priorities
· Protect children and provide a safe environment
· Improve the health and wellbeing of children and young people
· Tackle the causes and impact of child poverty
· Identify need early, working with families before problems arise
· Improve the quality of education for local children
· Ensure every child has the chance to reach his or her full potential
· Encourage young people to lead active and purposeful lives
· Maximise the opportunities open to young people as they move on from school or college
· Achieve best use of resources.
