Physical activity patterns - children and young people in Scotland

Physical activity patterns - children and young people in Scotland

As part of the 'Physical activity and health toolbox', currently being developed by the BHFNC, we have published our second in a series of easy-to-use fact sheets: 'Physical activity patterns - children and young people in Scotland'.

This fact sheet pulls together all the latest statistics from sources such as the Scottish Health Survey and the National Hands-Up Survey to provide a picture of how active children and young people in Scotland are. This fact sheet includes information on:

  • General physical activity trends
  • Travel to school
  • Provision of PE and sport in schools
  • Physical activity and the school day
  • Sedentary behaviour

We will soon be publishing 'Physical activity patterns - children in Wales' so keep an eye on our website or join our database to make sure you hear about this new fact sheet.
