PE offers opportunities for students to:

  • Develop their ideas in a creative way;
  • Set targets for themselves and compete against others, individually and as team members;
  • Understand what it takes to persevere, succeed and acknowledge others’ success;
  • Respond to a variety of challenges in a range of physical contexts and environments;
  • Take the initiative, lead activity and focus on improving aspects of their own performance;
  • Discover their own aptitudes and preferences for different activities;
