Physical Education provides for the development of the skills, knowledge, and competencies required for
healthy living. Learners involved in physical activity better control their weight and have a better chance
of avoiding obesity-related problems, including diabetes, high cholesterol. Physical Education also prepares learners for further studies in sports science and other sports related careers.

Teaching and Learning: Physical Education

Physical Education is essentially a practical and skills-based subject and involves learners being physically active. The new syllabuses provide learners with a wide range of contexts in which to develop physical and mental skills. The generic skills have been integrated throughout the curriculum and can only be acquired through active approaches.

The role of the teacher is to build on learners’ existing knowledge and experience, and to extend that by posing problems to the learners. This makes them think about their own ideas and experiences as well as adding new knowledge and skills to it. Learners need to interact with real situations inside and
outside the classroom. They need to look at pictures or diagrams, examine statistics, or read texts from a range of sources.

They need to find out knowledge and ideas for themselves. They should then be expected to express these in their own words, not those of the teacher, and so demonstrate that they have understood what they have learnt.

In this approach, learners are encouraged to:

  • be responsible for their own learning
  • think for themselves and form their own ideas and
    opinions
  • become critical thinkers, ready to face new challenges and
    situations for themselves
