Percentage of girls aged 5-16 that meet the UK Chief Medical Officers' (CMOs') recommendations for physical activity (an average of at least 60 minutes moderate-vigorous intensity activity per day across the week) (13647) Metric type
- Help text
- Percentage of children aged 5-16 that meet the UK Chief Medical Officers' (CMOs') recommendations for physical activity (an average of at least 60 minutes moderate-vigorous intensity activity per day across the week). Weighted number of respondents reporting participation in sport and physical activity for at least 420 minutes in the last 7 days. Data is collected between September and July (term time only). Where a numerator is less than 30 for a Local Authority area, results are not presented.. The values are calculated from a self-report survey, which is subjective and is influenced by the respondent's ability to recall and assess their physical activity levels. Self-reported data may also be affected by respondent desire to confirm to expectations and social norms (e.g. smoking under-estimated and PA over-estimated). However, although this might affect the absolute values, this should not affect comparisons if the bias is consistent across populations.
Although a sampling framework has been developed, the selection of schools is carried out by County Sports Partnerships, who contact the schools and encourage them to take part. As not all schools are surveyed, there is the possibility that only those schools with a strong commitment to physical activity take part in the survey.
