St Start Active Emerging evidence shows an St Stay Active association between sedentary behaviour and overweight and obesity, with some research also suggesting that sedentary behaviour is independently associated with all-cause mortality, type 2 diabetes, some types of cancer and metabolic dysfunction. These relationships are independent of the level of overall physical activity. For example, spending large amounts of time being sedentary may increase the risk of some health outcomes, even among people who are active at the recommended levels. (2011)
The Chief Medical Officer’s report in Example of a desk cycle 2011 ‘Start Active Stay Active’ warned of the dangers of being sedentary for long periods of time in the classroom and at home’ Follow the link to view the whole document https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/upl oads/attachment_data/file/216370/dh_128210.pdf Desk cycle - watch video from an elementary school in America http://www.deskcycle.com/
Y6 children from Crescent Academy were asked ‘Would you keep the desk cycles for next year’s class to use or would you get rid of them ?’ and here is just one example of what was said. “When I first started Y6 I was worried about SATs and I didn’t think I was going to pass because I was always messing around. But since I’ve used the desk cycle it actually made me get back on target and I actually learnt a lot more than I thought I would, which has helped me in the SATs which I thought made it easier, so I think loads more people should use them.”
Daniel , "It makes me focus more and builds my leg muscles .“ Gracie , "I like it, it's extra exercise...indoors !“ Lucus, “They help me do the mile run quicker and easier. They make my legs less heavy. Plus it's fun to pedal when learning .” Ethan , “I believe the desk cycles help me because they use the rest of my energy after break .”
New guidance for the PE and Sport premium is being written and hopefully circulated before the end of this term. The criteria for the new healthy school rating is unlikely to be available until later in the year. Sugar Tax
