    Background. According to the data from the World Health Organization, the condition of children’s feet is unsatisfactory. An effective solution to this problem requires the development of pedagogic and health correction technologies, the basis of which should consist of the joint effort of orthopedists, coaches and the family, founded on the advice of orthopedists, therapeutic swimming and corrective gymnastics. The aim of this research is to study the effectiveness of the technology of orthopedist-coach-parent joint activity in correcting foot problems in children between the ages of 11 and 12. Material and methods. The condition of the locomotor system in children was assessed using the plantographic method. In order to correct foot disorders, a program was developed whose effectiveness was studied in a scientific pedagogical experiment. Results. As a result of the pedagogical experiment, the indicators of the first degree of flat feet of all 5 children in the experimental group were significantly reduced, and no significant improvement was recorded in the control group. Conclusions. The results of the research showed that the correction of deviations in the locomotor system is more effective if it is carried out as a result of collaboration between the orthopedist, a coach and parents, using therapeutic swimming and corrective gymnastics, as well as maintaining the orthopedic regime.
