About these posters

KS1 covers healthy habits and the five senses. KS2 covers food groups and how to stop germs spreading. KS3-4 covers the main body systems and everyday health habits. They are general education posters and give no medical advice. There are no anatomy diagrams, so each poster is easy to read and suits a science, PSHE or form room. Each poster downloads as an A4 and an A3 PDF.
