The aim of Physical Education is "education through the physical". It aims to develop students' physical competence and knowledge of movement and safety, and their ability to use these to perform in a wide range of activities associated with the development of an active and healthy lifestyle.
Four objectives of physical education are to help individuals become physically fit, develop character, learn skills and become knowledgeable about sport. Physical education creates well-rounded people.
