Article Synopsis
  • Previous research indicates that school-based physical activity (PA) interventions could positively affect academic performance, particularly in math, but results have been inconclusive due to varying types of PA included in studies.
  • The ACTIVE SCHOOL project will implement two distinct PA interventions over one school year and will utilize a randomized controlled trial to assess their impacts on the academic performance of 9-10-year-old children.
  • The study aims to gather comprehensive data on various outcomes, such as academic performance, PA levels, cognitive functions, and overall student well-being, to better understand how physical activity influences educational success.
