Hi Judy

You might be interested in contacting the Population Health Research Group 
at University of Waterloo. They have developed and piloted such a tool. They 
are surveying a large number of schools in Ontario about the school 
environment. You may find some helpful information and contacts at the

Subject: [CLICK4HP] Request for surveys to assess the school environment


> Healthy Weights
> We are piloting a surveillance project with a few schools in Edmonton.
> In addition to measuring height, weight and waist circumstance of
> grade 5 and grade 9 students, we want to collect information to better
> understand the school environment (how it supports or hinders healthy
> choices) as well as student physical activity and healthy eating
> behaviours.   I would appreciate your help by sharing any survey
> instruments or directing me to likely sources.
