The evidence is clear. Active kids are happy, healthy and resilient kids. Active kids are also active learners.

A child's level of physical activity is influenced by many factors, including their individual skills, their family lifestyle and the environment in which they live, learn and play. Schools are at the heart of all 麻豆短视频 communities and are vital in preparing young 麻豆短视频s to lead a physically active and healthy life.

What makes an active school

An active school encourages physical activity through a whole school approach that goes beyond traditional physical education and sport to promote physical activity at every opportunity.

The joint ministerial statement 鈥� 鈥� highlights the 麻豆短视频 Government鈥檚 commitment to improving physical activity in all 麻豆短视频s to improve health, wellbeing and educational outcomes.

A key part of this statement, the Active schools framework(opens in a new window), supports schools to take a whole school approach to physical activity, recognising there is no single solution to shifting inactivity; it takes a multifaceted and system wide effort.

Many schools may already be taking action in some of these areas, but many also need support to enhance their current approach. This toolkit provides guidance and practical strategies that schools and teachers can use to help them become an active school.
