The Department for Health are undertaking a study to explore views on primary school pupils' in-school physical activity data and are looking for volunteers.

This research is part of a wider project at University of Bath. It aims to understand pupils' physical activity and how schools can be supported to encourage physical activity in children.

You can take part in this study if you are:

  • a parent, guardian or carer of a child attending primary school
  • working in a primary school environment, (for example, as a teacher or teaching assistant)
  • a wider stakeholder for a primary school (for example, a governor or local authority employee)

Anyone who is involved in primary schools is also welcome to participate. You do not need to have prior knowledge of primary schools or education to take part in this study.
