The proposed School Health Centers (SHCs) are primary care facilities that mainly focus on providing comprehensive health care targeted to school children aged between 4 and 17 years old in Qatar. The existing body of knowledge demonstrates a relationship between health status, quality of life, and academic performance among school children. School children with good health are more likely to fare better in their academic performance than school children with poor health.
