This systematic review describes the number, types and quality attributes of existing research studies on the barriers to, and facilitators of, physical activity amongst children aged 4 to 10. It synthesises the findings of a sub-set of these studies to assess what helps and what stops children taking part in physical activity over and above what they do in school physical education (PE) lessons.
The review goes on to make suggestions as to how physical activity can be promoted and for future research.
