Text 4 U Evaluation

The evaluation involved engaging young people directly via an on-line questionnaire and focus groups to ask their views about the service and suggestions for its future development.

Developing Links within the Health Curriculum

Create was commissioned by NHS Forth Valley to review and update the health education programme of three secondary schools within one local authority area.

This review differed from our previous work as the focus was to develop a curriculum with links across the topic areas of substance misuse, relationships and sexual health and mental health and emotional wellbeing. This was in response to teacher’s views that there is significant repetition across these topic areas.
