title: [Concrete approaches to the promotion of prevention. Health education in schools].
abstract: Society nowadays entrusts the school with formative tasks which earlier were exclusively the role of the family unit. Numerous such tasks are in relation with the integration of the individual in society. As they usually concern attitudes and behaviors which the youth must actively adopt for themselves (get impregnated with), the school cannot limit its action to transmitting knowledge. This is true in particular for health education. Good mental health of the students is the precondition of a positive attitude vis-à-vis physical wellbeing. It is important therefore to give adequate emphasis to mental health requirements in teacher training.
