Curriculum Information and Documents 

The NWT School Health Program was developed in the 1990s as a full program of studies to support teachers in having all needed materials easily at hand and so that the northern-context teaching and graphic illustrations would allow students to see themselves, their families and communities.  The program is divided into seven major units:

• Mental and Emotional Wellbeing 
• Growth and Development
• Family Life
• Nutrition
• Dental Health
• Safety and First Aid
• Alcohol and other Drugs
