The findings suggest that the AFLY5 school based
intervention is not effective at increasing levels of physical activity,
decreasing sedentary behaviour, and increasing fruit and vegetable
consumption in primary school children. Change in these activities may
require more intensive behavioural interventions with children or upstream
interventions at the family and societal level, as well as at the school
environment level. These findings have relevance for researchers, policy
makers, public health practitioners, and doctors who are involved in
health promotion, policy making, and commissioning services.
