* The Fitness Index (FI) of each school is based on the height and weight measurements of its pupils and their performance in the NAPFA test. The FI is defined as the average of:

(i). the percentage of pupils within the acceptable weight range according to the Weight for Height Table compiled by School Health Service, and

(ii). the percentage of pupils who pass the NAPFA test.

The acceptable weight range is from 80% to below 120% of standard weight.
