Healthy Schools

Marlbrook is very proud of having been awarded Healthy School status.
Every child in the school contributed to the application for us to be accredited with the coveted 'Gold' Status and we are one of only a handful of schools in the county to have achieved this.

Being a Healthy School means we care about the 'whole' person. We have a huge ranges of activities and initiatives in place to try to make Marlbrook a safe and happy place, and to make sure that everyone here is fulfilling their potential.

The photos below give a tiny example of the many ways we meet the areas expected of a 'Healthy school'
( 1) Personal, social and Health  Education,2) Emotional Health and wellbeing, 3) Physical Activity 4) Healthy Eating 5) Difference and Diversity 6)Citizenship
