Abstract : Background: The health and nutritional status of schoolchildren are indicators of a country's commitment in the development of its future workforce. Malnutrition affects a child's physical and cognitive development, as well as their disease susceptibility, and has an indirect negative influence on the country's economic growth. Methodology: A search was conducted through PubMed, Medline, Google school for articles that met the inclusion criteria. PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Metaanalysis) guided the reporting of items. Result: A high prevalence of poor nutrition status/malnutrition (70%& 65% undernutrition) was reported more in rural school children compared to the urban. Over nutrition (overweight& obesity) was more prevalent in Urban school children. Risk factors associated with nutritional status were low socio-economic status, parents’ illiteracy, level of education and employment status Conclusion: In contrast to their urban counterparts, our findings indicate that rural children are nutritionally deficient. This distinction highlights the importance of taking a unique approach to preventing malnutrition in both regions.
