Health promotion cannot be meaningfully achieved in isolation from health literacy. Whilst health promotion activities are common in the school environment, health literacy is not a familiar concept.

Long-term health outcomes are reliant on embedded, locally owned and co-designed programs which respond to local health and health literacy needs.
