School based, health promoting interventions with focus on increase physical activity and improved nutrition seems to be a good solution to the challenges with low physical activity level, poor physical fitness, poor nutrition and psychosocial health challenges among children and adolescents. Low physical activity levels and physical fitness is recognized as one of the major public health challenges in the 21st century, and it negatively affects cognitive skills and academic performances. Providing school based health promoting interventions makes it easier to reach all children and adolescents regardless of social and cultural background, and hence reduce social inequalities in health.
