Educators and administrators know that getting students and staff moving more and minimizing screen use improves learning while supporting wellbeing. Yet research shows that a large portion of a student’s sedentary time happens in the classroom or during homework.
An international expert panel led by the Sedentary Behaviour Research Network has developed recommendations aimed at managing school-related sedentary behaviours and screen use. Visit www.sedentarybehaviour.org to access the recommendations in more than a dozen languages, as well as tools and resources for implementing the recommendations within your school community.
