Students at colleges left trailing on fitness levels

The average fitness level of primary and secondary school students in China has improved slightly after years of decline, but that of college students continues to worsen, according to a national report.

The deterioration of elementary and high school students' physical condition has been tackled thanks to the increasing emphasis placed on physical education on campus, the report found.

These students' physical examination results improved, according to the first Annual Report on Development of Youth Sports.
