Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the Clusters of health promoting schools in middle and high
schools for the Korean Youth Risk Behaviors Web-based Survey.
Methods: The tool of health promoting school was developed based on a framework for action for health promoting schools in World Health Organization and Schools Health Index for middle and high schools in the United States by 2 professionals and 2 health teachers and revised as a result of the preliminary study. Data were collected with a questionnaire from teachers who attended the conference run by Korean Centers for Communicable Disease Control and Prevention in 2009. The data of 363 schools were analyzed using descriptive analysis, t-test, and ANOVA.
Results: As a result of comparing the scores of health promoting schools, three Clusters were identified. The Clusters differed significantly in presence of health teacher, location, and type of schools (p<.05).
Conclusion: These results are a good reference in developing tailored strategies for health promoting schools, which will help improve health-promoting schools.
