Health and Wellbeing Champion Award
Champion Award - This school actively champions health and wellbeing through verified provision and sharing good practice.
Schools following the Champion award demonstrate that they ‘actively champion health and wellbeing through verified provision and sharing good practice’. The benchmarks and criteria for the Champion Award cover all aspects of an evidenced-based whole school approach to health and wellbeing. The Champion Award is externally verified by an Achieve Well Team assessor. Schools audit their practice, action plan, implement improvements and upload evidence for each criteria. Once all criteria are ‘green’ the school arranges a verification visit from an assessor. Champion status remains for a period of 3 years, after which a school must reassess. To maintain their Champion status, schools must attend at least one Achieve Well network meeting per annum, share good practice with other schools, plus complete an annual audit.
Once a school has completed the Champion Award, they move on to the Impact Awards which focus on a specific area of need identified from their data.
