Generalist teachers and early childhood educators (ECEs) play an important role in promoting physical activity and fundamental movement skills in children. However, teachers face several barriers to promoting physical activity and fundamental movement skills including inadequate training and professional development. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the efficacy of capacity building interventions on teachers’ and ECEs’ physical activity and fundamental movement skills related knowledge, self-efficacy and attitudes. The search revealed 22 studies which reported on 25 unique samples. The most common capacity building intervention component implemented was training/professional development. The results of this study revealed that capacity building interventions are efficacious at improving teachers’ and ECEs’ physical activity related self-efficacy, knowledge, and attitudes. Pre-service teachers and ECEs should be provided training in physical activity and FMS as part of their degrees, and continual professional development and capacity building should be offered to in-service teachers and ECEs to promote physical activity and FMS in children. |
