The Health Protection Agency's e-Bug teaching resource uses interactive games and lesson handouts to explain the need for prudent antibiotic use.
It will be made available to schools across the UK and the rest of Europe from 2009.
The teaching pack is being launched to coincide with the first ever European Antibiotic Awareness Day.
The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control is co-ordinating the day which will see a series of campaigns launched across EU states.
In England, the Department of Health will relaunch its Antibiotics! Do You Need Them? advertising campaign, which was first run at the start of this year.
The over-use of antibioitics is considered one of the key reasons for the rise in so-called superbugs because it gives the bacteria the chance to build up immunity to the drugs.
The ECDPC will also unveil a breakdown of how each country is doing in tackling antibiotic resistant infections.
Throughout the UK , MRSA rates have begun to fall, although the HPA recently warned of a rise in a new breed of antibiotic-resistant bugs.
The e-Bug teaching resource, which includes lesson plans, handouts and interactive games, has been developed by the HPA for primary and secondary school pupils.
It includes information on good microbes, bad microbes and the importance of hand hygiene as well as warning about the over-use of antibiotics.
