Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
1. Pilot study:<br>Objectively measured free-living moderate and vigorous physical activity measured at baseline and week 4-8 of the programme<br><br>2. Randomised controlled trial:<br>Accelerometry-assessed change in average daily MVPA. Measurements will be conducted at four time points; (T1) baseline, pre-randomisation (T2) interim assessment (week 6), (T3) post intervention (week 14-16), and (T4) 10-month follow-up (primary outcome).

1. Pilot study:<br>1.1. Body mass index (BMI) <br>1.2. Body fat percentage <br>1.3. Other objectively measured physical activity intensities<br>1.4. Self-reported physical activity <br>1.5. Self-efficacy for physical activity<br>1.6. Peer and parental support for physical activity<br>All measured at baseline and week 4-8 of the programme.<br><br>2. Randomised controlled trial:<br>2.1. Accelerometer-assessed sedentary, light, overall physical activity during school time, weekday evenings, weekends<br>2.2. Self-reported physical activity, self-efficacy, self-esteem, peer support, friendship quality, mood, school-reported absence and academic performance, body fat %, BMI, waist circumference (added 26/07/2017)<br>2.3. Within-trial, long term cost-effectiveness and cost-utility analyses <br>2.4. Mixed methods process evaluation assessing programme acceptability, uptake, maintenance, and dose; and putative moderators/mediators
