Smriti Safaya, SEI York
The air students breathe in classrooms can significantly affect their health, wellbeing, and ability to learn. In this session, Smriti will share findings from a scoping review examining approaches to raising awareness, changing behaviours, and fostering healthier learning environments through improved school indoor air quality.
Katie Meadows
School uniforms are often assumed to improve behaviour, attendance, and academic success, but what does the evidence actually tell us?
Katie will present the findings of a systematic review exploring the impact of school uniforms on children’s health behaviours and outcomes. Drawing on evidence from 12 studies, this talk examines the relationship between school uniform policies and a range of educational, physical, and psychosocial outcomes.
