At Rothley C of E Academy, we believe that developing healthy lifestyle habits is an essential part of every child's education. We are committed to helping our children understand how to make positive choices that support their physical health, mental wellbeing, and overall happiness.

Through our curriculum, daily routines, and enrichment opportunities, we teach children the importance of healthy eating, regular physical activity, good sleep habits, personal hygiene, and positive emotional wellbeing. We encourage pupils to understand the impact that their choices can have on their health both now and in the future.

Healthy lifestyles are promoted across all areas of school life. Children take part in high-quality Physical Education lessons, enjoy opportunities for active play, learn about nutrition and wellbeing, and develop the knowledge and skills needed to make informed decisions. We also recognise the importance of supporting children's mental health, helping them build resilience, confidence, and positive relationships.

We work closely with families and the wider community to reinforce healthy messages and create an environment where children can thrive. By promoting healthy lifestyles from an early age, we aim to equip our pupils with the knowledge, skills, and attitudes they need to lead healthy, active, and fulfilling lives.

To help families access reliable information and practical support, we have provided links to a range of trusted advice, guidance and resources below. We encourage parents and carers to explore these resources and contact the school if they would like any further information or support.
