12 Systematic reviews - overweight among school children: Most recent Cochrane review Authors' conclusions: We found strong evidence to support beneficial effects of child obesity prevention programmes on BMI, particularly for programmes targeted to children aged six to 12 years Promising policies and strategies: school curriculum that includes healthy eating, physical activity and body image increased sessions for physical activity and the development of fundamental movement skills throughout the school week improvements in nutritional quality of the food supply in schools environments and cultural practices that support children eating healthier foods and being active throughout each day support for teachers and other staff to implement health promotion strategies and activities parent support and home activities that encourage children to be more active, eat more nutritious foods and spend less time in screen based activities Waters E et al: Interventions for preventing obesity in children.
