Abstract | Background: The nutritional status of children of school age is a significant global concern. The nutritional state of school-aged children significantly impacts their overall health, cognitive development, and educational attainment. Objective: The objective is to assess the nutritional status of school-age children (7-12 years) residing in the catchment area of the Talang Banjar Health Center, located in Jambi City. Methods: This research is a quantitative study employing a cross-sectional design. The study population consisted exclusively of moms with children of school age. The sample size in this study was 138, selected using the basic random sampling procedure. Anthropometric standards for children are utilized to evaluate or ascertain the nutritional condition of children. Evaluating the nutritional status of children involves comparing their weight and height measurements with established anthropometric norms. The data were examined utilizing the SPSS program. Results: The study revealed that 55.1% of the children in the sample had high nutritional status, whereas 20.3% were classified as obese, 16.7% were classified as overnourished, and 8.0% were classified as undernourished. Conclusion: The majority of children in the sample exhibited satisfactory nutritional status, whereas a minority showed signs of obesity, overweight, or undernutrition. |
