The purpose of the study was to design a rehabilitation program and identifying its effectiveness to improve the isokinetic, physical and postural variables associated with flat feet for secondary stage students. The researcher used experimental method using the pre and post measurement for one experimental group on a sample selected purposively, which consisted of (24) students with flat feet with a percentage of 24% of the research community of (20) students who are the basic sample of the research and four students who are the members of the survey sample of the research from the same research community and outside the basic research sample. The research results have shown that the positive effect of the rehabilitation program has led to an improvement in the isokinetic variables associated with flat feet for secondary stage students under consideration such as (peak torque at ankle extension, peak torque at ankle flexion, work at ankle extension, work at ankle flexion, power at ankle extension, power at ankle flexion) and an improvement in the physical variables associated with flat feet for secondary stage students under consideration such as (flexibility of the ankle joints at flexion and extension, balance) .In addition to improvement in the postural variables associated with flat feet for secondary stage students under consideration such as (foot arch angle, Chegena coefficient, foot arch standard ,foot surface on the ground, ratio of foot pressure on the ground ). The researcher recommends the need to apply the rehabilitation program under consideration on the secondary stage students with flat feet as well as developing preventive rehabilitation programs to reduce flat feet before it becomes difficult to rehabilitate in advanced stages. In addition to developing programs to improve (physical, postural,..,etc.) fitness for school students. (Published abstract)
