In another group of children who did no extra exercise, there was no change in the brain.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The authors behind the study called for PE to be taught every day in school, because today\u2019s youngsters have plenty of opportunity to sit around and not many to get moving. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">At Trailblazer we know all about the benefits of exercise on the brain because we have seen it and felt it first hand, and we\u2019re doing our bit to get kids involved too.
