Abstract: The aim of this work is the study of height and weight development in students aged 6 to 12 schooled in Mali, capital Bamako. and determining the growth status of that population. Means and Methods; 300 students aged 6 to 12 took part in this study. divided into 2 age categories 6-8 years, 9-12 years. Anthropometric measurements were carried out using standardized and verified instruments, as well as weight, height, BMI (body mass index) for determining the state of corpulence, and some indices of physical development. The weight growth in boys evolve in favor of children from the age of 9-10 years. While in girls, the weight isgreater at 11-12 years (t-test p<0.01), Concerning the stature, no significant difference was recordedbetween the two age groups although this parameter knows a significant acceleration from the age of 10,which is confirmed by the literature. Conclusion: Somatic growth is in linear progression in both sexes. Concerning the weight, the boys are increasingly heavy ((t-test p<0.001) while in girls, the difference is significant ((t-test p<0.01). These results invite us to investigate encompassing a broader assessment related to growth and diet through a longitudinal study that could be compared with WHO international benchmark
