Data collected using accelerometers indicated that a teacher development program was effective in supporting physical activity among preschool and school-aged children through age-appropriate activities and quality physical education (QPE). He also presented findings on physical activity among young people in training and education centers under the Department of Juvenile Observation and Protection.
