Petition Action

Make nutrition, health and wellbeing part of the national curriculum.

Petition Details

Obesity related poor health has never been higher. It is essential we teach children from pre school upwards the importance of healthy eating, nutrition & healthy living. Poor diet not only affects weight, physical health but also mental health. Both need urgent attention & education.

Additional Information

Health, nutrition & wellbeing need to be part of the school curriculum from pre school upwards. This needs to be a key subject and taught across every school. Change will never happen unless we educate children & the next generation. The only way to change the ever growing obesity issue (leading to a whole host of health issues from diabetes to heart disease) is change & education. Education being the key. If not this will continue to grow & the issues will continue to escalate.
