Primary 1 Children Body Mass Index - Clinical

Note: This dataset will not be receiving updates through this portal. Please refer to the Public Health Scotland Open Data platform for the relevant data. Primary 1 Body Mass Index (BMI) statistics capture important information of the growth of young children. Clinical thresholds are used to define children with a level of under- or overweight that may warrant clinical intervention, such as consideration of any underlying cause, advice on healthy eating and appropriate levels of physical activity, or referral to more intensive child healthy weight services. A full publication report and technical report are available. All publications and supporting material to this topic area can be found on the ISD Scotland - Child Health Website.
