The study measured physical activity levels of 50 boys and 50 girls aged 9-10 using accelerometers worn for 7 days. It found that on average, girls spent 38 more minutes per day being sedentary than boys. Boys also spent 19 more minutes per day doing moderate to vigorous physical activity. Overall, both genders spent over 9 hours per day being sedentary. Just over half of the pupils met the government's physical activity guidelines of 60 minutes per day, with more boys (36%) meeting it than girls (18%). The study concludes that sedentary time needs to be reduced and girls' physical activity levels need to be increased to meet guidelines and improve health.
