Forces at play: A qualitative study of risk aversion, policy and decision making for children's physically active play in schools
This study investigated (i) the social and political factors driving risk averse decision making for children's physically active play in schools, and (ii) the policies shaping these decisions in Victoria, Australia. A theory-informed multi-method case study design combined policy document mapping, semi-structured interviews, and photo elicitation with 30 education policy actors. Data were analysed using reflexive thematic analysis. Findings showed the policy landscape was heavily skewed towards managing risk and safety (84%; n = 42), with fewer, mostly optional, policies for promoting physical activity, and a lack of policy to promote or protect play. Thematic findings indicated an intersecting range of factors in this setting (including occupational health and safety, knowledge and skill gaps, parent factors, children's physical capabilities, an undervaluing of play) can deter schools from providing an environment that enables children's freely chosen, physically active play. Multi-faceted, systems-based approaches that go beyond interventions aimed at individual behaviour change are needed.
