1. TONI
Good morning and welcome.
This presentation will take around 20 minutes with 10 minutes for questions at the end. The presentation is in 2 parts. The first is a summary of how Change4Life will be supporting stakeholders around the National Child Measurement Programme and the second is a round up of the 10 Minute Shake Up campaign.
We will answer as many questions at the end as we can in the time available but apologies in advance if we are not able to get to yours. The slides and voice overs will be made available on the CRC along with an list of FAQs

2. Our Healthy Year
It’s crucial that children learn from an early age about healthy eating and the importance of activity in their lives so they can carry this information on with them beyond primary school As part of our Change4Life programme, we have created Our Healthy Year to support NCMP , particularly with Reception and Year 6 children, but also with the whole school to help them to eat well, move more and live longer
As I am sure many of you know, each year 1.1 million children in reception and year 6 are weighed an measured as part of the National Child Measurement Programme.
Measurement offers us an opportunity to develop the knowledge and behaviours of reception and year 6 children to prepare them to lead healthier lives.
This initiative will therefore support and enhance the NCMP by providing timely and targeted Change4Life materials and messaging to stakeholders including parents, children, teachers, heads, local authorities and school nurses

3. Our Healthy Year
Reception is a time when children are settling into school and forming new patterns, and parents are engaged and involved with school life Year 6 are particularly busy with stressful SATs reparation and experiencing the onset of puberty These are also the years when children’s height and weight is measured by school nurses as part of the NCMP Key times for children to engage with the important healthy lifestyle messages of Our Healthy Year

4. Creating a positive environment around the NCMP
Headteachers
Teachers
Pupils
School Nurses
Local Authorities
In school, the programme will be about creating a positive environment around measurement
For head teachers supporting them to create a healthier culture within the schools with ideas for the whole school to get involved in as a backdrop to the measurement.
For teachers this is curriculum linked teachable moments and creating visibility around the school with posters and wall charts
For pupils this is take home certificates and stickers. These are likely to be linked to completing a related activity rather than the measurement itself
