A Meta-Synthesis Study on International Studies on School Health Education

School health education is an important tool in sustaining the health of societies and is increasingly being included in studies. The aim of this study is to systematically identify and bring together school health education studies conducted in the last 10 years at the international level and to conduct a meta-synthesis. In this context, 25 journal articles conducted between 2015-2025 were analyzed with a planned meta-synthesis study within the qualitative research design. Google Scholar, ERIC and Web of Science databases were used to determine the studies to be included in the study. In the school health education studies examined in this study, more studies were reached in the fields of nutrition and oral health. In addition, in the school health education studies examined, the effects of education on the participants were generally examined using quantitative methods and data collection tools. In the studies examined, the study group generally consisted of primary and secondary school students; the studies were generally conducted over a 6-18 months study period. Finally; in the school health education studies examined in the study, more studies conducted in Indonesia, America and China were reached. It is expected that this study will provide a detailed look at the school health education studies conducted in recent years and inspire future health education studies.
