Welcome to the Physical Track Training designed to help teachers promote wellbeing through physical activity in schools.
While wellbeing should involve the entire school system, teachers can play a key role by implementing activities that increase students’ physical wellbeing.
This programme provides tools and inspiration to design contextual interventions that encourage physical activity among children and adolescents.
The training consisted of several interactive online sessions, where teachers:
✔️ Presented their own good practices
✔️ Shared proposals adaptable to different school settings
✔️ Explored factors affecting physical activity in youth
Before diving into the proposals, understanding the motivational processes and the barriers that may limit physical activity is essential.
