The aim of this dissertation was to develop an questionnaire to evaluate the health promotion and well-being of school environments from the perspective of high school students, based on the pillars of the Health Promoting Schools initiative, authored by the World Health Organization (WHO). The items of the Questionnaire for the Evaluation of Health Promotion and Well-Being at School were organized into three axes: Axis 1 - Education for Health; Axis 2 - Healthy environments and environments; Axis 3 - Cooperation between school and health services. The questions were constructed according to the five-point inverted Likert-type scale model, with the response options arranged in the following order: I totally agree; partially agree; I do not agree nor disagree; partially disagree; I totally disagree. As additional instruments, the research also applied a socio-contextual questionnaire and the Subjective Well-Being Scale. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistical techniques, such as mean, standard deviation, frequency and percentage. Correlations between quantitative variables were also analyzed using Pearson's correlation test. The Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS®) software was used for the analysis, with a significance level of 0.05. The school, target of the research, presented satisfactory results in axes 1 and 2 of the questionnaire, which is equivalent to saying that health education topics have been addressed by teachers and that the school has healthy environments from a physical-structural point of view and psychosocial. The results of axis 3 indicated the need to expand and strengthen intersectoral cooperation between schools and public health services. The correlation observed between the scores of the EBES and QAPSBE subscales indicated that, when considering the school as a health promoting space, the participants feel well-being at the individual level.
