A high-quality physical education curriculum inspires all students to succeed and excel in competitive sport and other physically-demanding activities.
It should provide opportunities for students to become physically confident in a way which supports their health and fitness. Opportunities to compete in sport and other activities build character and help to embed values such as fairness and respect.
