Abstract | As eating disorders symptomatology often begins during adolescence, schools have a unique and essential role. Specifically, schools can be at the forefront in the intervention and prevention of eating disorders to implement programs that work. In addition, schools can reach students at individual and universal levels, positively impacting those at risk of developing or struggling with an eating disorder. This paper aimed to review and analyze the various programs schools utilize to address eating disorders. Using a systematic analysis method, the study described features of school-based eating disorder programs, identify the programs strengths/limitations, understood similarities and differences and list programs that demonstrate features of successful prevention programs that were reported in the literature. The study identified thirty four (34) school-based eating disorder programs worldwide. The systematic analysis used the features of successful prevention programs by Ciao et al. (2014) to describe similarities and differences. Five (5) programs met all the Approach, Content, Participant and Intervention features of successful programs. Thirty four (34) school-based eating disorder programs target risk factors while thirty two (32) use a cognitive or behavioral theory approach. Thirty two (32) out of thirty four (34) programs included content on healthy eating/nutrition and media literacy/sociocultural factors. Only one (1) program did not address body acceptance/body satisfaction content. Thirty one (31) programs target a range of ages: four (4) programs for elementary school, eighteen (18) for middle school, fourteen (14) for high school. Thirty (30) programs use group-based and interactive strategies in program delivery. The study provides schools with a variety of choices to determine which program fits their school population, cultural context, logistic and scheduling needs critical to successfully prevent or intervene eating disorders.
