Quantitative data collection tool is "Health-related Opinions Questionnaire" developed by researchers and qualitative data collection tools are "Semi-structured Interview Form on Concept of Health". Quantitative data sample consists of 623 students attending 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th grades of Anatolian High Schools from Ankara. Qualitative data sample is 28 teachers and 26 students working in secondary education institutions.Descriptive statistics, correlation and content analysis were used to analyze data. According to results obtained from document analysis and teacher opinions; health science and biology curriculum should be developed by duration and theme of maintaining health. In addition, programs need to be updated and processed more contextually. Students' views on healthy living behaviors are generally moderately dispersed. The scores of Adolescent Lifestyle Profile Scale and its sub-dimensions are also moderate. Variables belonging to students have weak or moderate relationships with opinions on health and lifestyle profiles. When quantitative and qualitative analysis are evaluated together, It is seem that initial intentions of students are higher than final. Survey also found that students don't take adequate care of their mental health enough and expect more support from society. It is seen that teachers also adopt the role of social support and are willing to receive in-service training on health.
