Abstract

This chapter discusses the importance of implementing an interdisciplinary educational model in schools to promote mental health, prevent eating disorders, and improve the oral health of children and adolescents. This approach is committed to integrating prevention and health promotion within the school curriculum, focusing on the development of socio-emotional skills and promotion of mental well-being, in addition to academic knowledge. It highlights the importance of fostering collaboration between teachers, psychologists, nutritionists, and health professionals to address these aspects effectively, thus improving the academic performance and quality of life of students.
