Education professionals play a crucial role in health education, notably as role-models, since they come into contact with students on a daily basis. Therefore, examining their health behaviours may be instructive. In this nationwide French study, teachers appeared to behave more healthily compared with non-education sector employees in important domains such as alcohol consumption or tobacco use. However, certain non-teaching education professional groups were more likely to be physically inactive or overweight/obese. Our results highlight opportunities for interventions aimed at raising health awareness and empowerment among school staff. A comprehensive health promotion approach integrating our findings would draw less on a vertical or top-down transfer of knowledge and depend more on participation and exchange among school staff, on teachers leading by example, as well as on the development of a supportive school environment.
