Abstract

Malnutrition and its symptoms and consequences have become a disease of the modern era, where ready-made meals, colored foods, carbonated water, and foods that depend on taste only attract consumers, especially children. Due to this malnutrition was observed among primary school students in Turaif Governorate, which resulted this study. In this study, a special educational program was applied to students in the primary stage. The program and its effectiveness were observed for 200students (6-12 years), who suffer from malnutrition. Which resulted in their academic delay and reduction in their grades. The effectiveness of the program was evaluated by following up academic average for students per week, for over six consecutive weeks the results and statistics have proven the effectiveness of the educational program as a method for educating and guiding students about the importance of food and basic nutrients, important for a healthy body and healthy mind. Appropriate nutritional behaviors were explained during proposed program like methods of cleaning food, washing hands before eating etc. The proposed program resulted in an increase in students' grades and improvement in learning speed by up to 94.5% with improvement in grade point average up to 9.5% on the scale of 4. I advise schools, universities and other educational institutions to apply this proposed program to students suffering from malnutrition, so that to get good educational results
