Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

School physical education (PE) is one of the most valuable tools for increasing physical activity and fitness among youth of all backgrounds; however, compliance with existing PE laws is low (and differential by school race/ethnic and family-income composition, contributing to health disparities), and best practices for increasing compliance remain unknown. This study proposes to examine a novel approach for increasing PE law compliance by testing a PE audit and feedback tool (adapted from a tool used by the New York City Department of Education) in Oakland, California schools to determine the effectiveness, adaptability, and scalability of this potential cost-effective approach for increasing PE law compliance and student physical activity.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

This will be a 2-group cluster-randomized clinical trial, with the school being the unit of assignment and randomization. 5 schools will receive an intervention and 5 schools will serve as controls.

Primary Study Purpose

PREVENTION

Blinding Strategy

NONE

This will be an intervention delivered at the school-level to improve physical education; blinding is not possible in this study.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

PE Audit and Feedback Intervention

Schools in this arm will receive a PE audit and feedback tool delivered by the school district's teacher on special assignment for PE, which will consist of an audit of the school's existing PE program; Feedback on ways to improve the PE program; and technical assistance to help improve the PE program.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

PE Audit and Feedback Tool

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The intervention consists of a Physical Education (PE) Audit and Feedback tool, which was adapted from work done through the PE Works program in the New York City Department of Education. A district-level PE program leader in Oakland Unified School District will deliver the tool, which consists of auditing the current status of PE in intervention schools, providing feedback on the status to help improve PE, and providing technical assistance to bring schools up to code and ensure support for PE programming.

PE Support as Usual

Schools in this arm will receive district-level support for PE as is typically provided by the school district.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

No interventions assigned to this group
