In the research based on the sample of 56 children with special needs, age 12 to 15, we conducted composite morphological analysis, apropos body composite physical structure analysis using BODY COMPOSITION ANALYZER TANITA TBF- 300. Likewise, with Cluster analysis, actually method of conformational criteria (K-Means Cluster Analysis), using values BMI we made the assessment of physical status and fattening up. The gained results present justification, in another words, product of sensory - motor disorder in this population which is manifested with reduced kinesiology activity because of limited various motor task performance. This and similar kind of condition inevitably leads to disorder in structural analysis of physical structure, therefore to fattening up disorder
