8.6.11 Progress Towards Targets
There have been previous targets relating to obesity and exercise such as the one for
the Local Area Agreement 2 (LAA2), which was to increase the levels of exercise in
children and young people (ONE HULL 2009) by involving children and young people in
“high-quality physical education and sport”. The target was to achieve 81% of children
and young people participating in high quality physical education and sport by
2009/2011. This target was managed by the Learning Strategic Delivery Partnership of
ONE HULL, and figures are not available in relation to the progress towards this target.
However, following the change in government in May 2010, the LAA have been
replaced, and new outcome measures are currently under consultation (see section
3.3.6.2 on page 52), so it is not yet known which will become the new indicators.
However, one of the possible listed measures relates to the percentage of adults
meeting the recommended 30 minutes or more of moderate or vigorous exercise five or
more times per week. If this indicator was used, then there is no indication of how it
would be measured, and there would be a possibility that the indicator would be based
on synthetic or modelled data (see section 12.1 on page 770). If this was the case, it
would not be an appropriate measure as modelled estimates cannot be used for
accessing changes over time. In Hull, following the 2009 Prevalence Survey, baseline
data would exist in order to derive targets if this were to become an outcome measure.
