School

It is recommended that children should take part in 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous activity everyday. With children spending a majority of time at school, schools and after school care become a critical setting for intervention.

The Taskforce undertakes research into children’s physical activity levels, as well as supporting the Department of Education and Training in a number of initiatives including policy, curriculum support materials and professional development for teachers.

For more information on how physical activity is supported in schools visit the Department of Education and Training website.
