The multifaceted activities of teachers involved in the system of continuous education, health protection occupies an important place, which is a part of educational programs aimed at the formation of students' personality. In this context, the insufficient competence of students in matters of preservation and strengthening of health of the younger generation is the cause of various diseases and personality neuroticism.
This raises the need to develop programs for the conservation and recovery of health of both students and teachers by means of psychological, medical and sports actions. This can be achieved in the case of the introduction of idea of a healthy lifestyle in educational institutions, which considers health as a personal, social and educational value of students. The implementation of this idea is possible in the case of planned management ofpedagogical process for the purpose ofhealth protection, on the one hand, at the level of teacher's activities control, on the other hand, on the level of trainees' activities control [1].
Teacher at all stages of lifelong education system is to implement active health activities oflearners through the content, principles and forms of organizing the learning process, interactive methods of training and education, methods and communication styles.
This training should primarily focus on promotion of their health, excepting the presence ofbad habits, exercising commitment to promote healthy lifestyles.
Many years of our research in the framework of education and character building activities in preschool educational institutions, secondary schools, vocational colleges and universities show that first of all teacher's activities on formation of students' motivation to health is an important factor of health protection of the younger generation.
The acquisition of a tutor and a teacher of knowledge about what the "health" is, the ability to implement health-saving technologies, taking into account individual psychological characteristics of students, providing health-saving environment to prevent occurrence of stress factors and etc., are key elements of health-professional competence of a teacher [2].
The scientific literature presents a number of definitions of"health", in particular, that the health is the most important condition of a person, the basis of his life, material wealth, labor activity, success and longevity. The training is designed to convince students that person's health reflects the standard ofliving and country welfare and it directly affects labor productivity, economy, defense, moral principles of the society,
mood ofpeople, paying particular attention to the fact that the level of health depends on the socio-economic, material-technical, sanitation, environment, culture, health, science, lifestyle, food [3].
Currently, there has been a system of organization of educational and training process aimed at students' health protection, which includes the following subsystems: formation of knowledge and skills of health culture and healthy lifestyle (HLS), organization of health-protection educational process, improvement in educational and extracurricular time. Purposeful and consistent interaction between a tutor and a student contributes to health culture through health-protection education, including knowledge of laws of formation, preservation and strengthening of health, mastery of skills aimed at preservation of personal health, factors forming assessment, mastering knowledge of healthy lifestyle and skills of construction, as well as formation of health values, healthy lifestyle as common to humanity values. In order to develop students' skills in field of health preservation, including their personal health, a teacher uses a variety of modern health-saving technologies, forms and methods ofteaching, such as lectures, video lectures, seminar workshop, management game, thematic sessions, conference and etc [4].
Health-saving activities of an educator can be successfully realized in the course of studying in small groups to develop specific health-saving topics and projects, followed by presentation ofinfor-mation technologies, organization of competitions of best works on health creative activities of students of schools, lyceums, colleges, supplementary education institutions, "Barkamol Avlod" students, promoting activation of educational, extracurricular work and activities ofhealth-saving nature, outside educational institutions. Teamwork of a tutor and a student contributes to the development of students' interest in health protection issues, promotion of children and teenagers creativity in field of preservation, strengthening and expanding health reserves and formation of health culture.
In solving problems of preservation of the younger generation of health and diseases prevention, including the so-called "school diseases" of students, a lot of attention is paid to healthcare measures, as well as the implementation of health protection policy at all stages of continuing education through creation of "health schools" on the basis of educational institutions. It should be noted that high efficiency of work is being done in this direction by tutors, psychologists, teachers, doctors and parents. Each

educational institution at the present stage of society development can become a "Health School" in which health protection environment is ensured by proper competence of health-medical and teaching staff, as well as implementation of health protection technologies achieved at all stages of training and education. In these "health schools", working under the slogan "None of the students will be left without care and attention", the goal was set to expand the scope of work in this direction, to increase the scope of students by constant attention to their physical, mental and spiritual health. In the context of the "Health School", the implementation of our educational system is carried out through a variety of processes, such as management, training, educational, health as well as supportive processes (medical, psychological, social, valeological) development of students and tutors personality. The importance of such educational system component of "Health School" as pedagogical (teaching and educational) process has been mentioned above. Not least important is the fact that components of educational system of "Health School", in our opinion, are the services that provide the educational process and ensure preservation, promotion of health and formation of healthy life style philosophy and personal development of students and teachers.
Work ofmedical, psychological, valeological, social and educational services appears to be as an essential condition for achieving goals of pedagogical process in "Healthy Schools", in this regard, experts of these services take part in them as indirect participants.
The fact that the activities of the services are aimed at tracking and correction of qualitative changes in physical, mental and social development of students, introduction of psychological, physiological and valeological knowledge into practice, helps teacher to realize the greatest benefit of the content and ways of organizing health-saving pedagogical process. Accompanying the pedagogical process, the services of educational institutions largely determine their effectiveness in terms of ensuring health of students.
Thus, the backbone factor of "Healthy Schools" is the general goal in education, training and development of a healthy person,
which affects the final outcome of all subjects of the educational system.
Educational system of "School Health", oriented towards personal development and ensuring health of children, accumulates flexible education, management, health-improving programs and technologies adapted to individual qualities of a tutor and a student. Therefore, "School health" compared with traditional educational institutions is adaptive, leaning to the type of tightly connected social and educational systems.
Among the factors contributing to low efficiency of health protection activity in modern educational institutions is the lack of competence of teachers in matters of protection and promotion of healthy lifestyle formation among students, because a teacher, who is conscious of the importance for targeted activities on conservation and strengthening his own health, will be able to contribute effectively to the normal physical and mental development of the younger generation. In this respect, it stands out from a specialist who is not able to mobilize students by his own example and who maintains healthy lifestyle not only in words.
In the development of teachers' readiness criteria for health protection activity and application of health-saving technologies in educational process and extracurricular time, the following should be considered: presence of required medical and hygienic knowledge in students; professional and pedagogical knowledge and practical skills in health protection of students; degree of adaptation to innovative initiatives in health preservation practice; creativity potential in health protection of a person; ability to student-centered learning; systematicity of knowledge and skills of health preservation; the ability to generate healthy lifestyle; knowledge and skills of implementing health-saving exercises.
Only in case of provisions of the following aspects such as formation of healthy, spiritually mature and harmoniously developed rising generation that could take responsibility for the fate and future of the country, health-saving activity of a teacher can be successfully implemented.
