1. What is Physical Education?
Physical education is “education through the body”. The aim is to develop students'
physical competence and knowledge of exercise and safety and to enable them to use these in
a variety of activities associated with the development of an active and healthy lifestyle. It
also promotes students' confidence and overall skills, particularly in the areas of
collaboration, communication, creativity, critical thinking and aesthetic appreciation. These,
together with the promotion of positive values and attitudes in sport, form a good basis for
students' lifelong and life-wide learning.
