  1. Notes: Model Mixed logistic regression adjusted for ICSEA, school size and wear time for accelerometer measure physical activity. All models included school as a random effect. * P ≤ 0.05 a Meeting the physical activity guidelines on 7 days, b Meeting the physical activity guidelines on ≥ 5 days, c ≥60mins of MVPA/day on average, * Significant difference at p < 0.05. Adjusted for ICSEA, school size and wear time for accelerometer measure physical activity. Models included school as a random effect
