Chapter 3: Recommended Taught Time
Parte de Physical Education And Sport At School In Europe. Eurydice Report. . páginas 25 - 29
Resumo
The importance of physical education is emphasised in the curricula of all European countries, in which it is a mandatory subject throughout the whole of full-time compulsory general education. Nevertheless, the prescribed taught time for physical education differs significantly from one country to another. The first section of this chapter examines the minimum taught time recommended for it in both primary and general secondary education. The second section reviews changes in these recommendations between 2006/07 and 2011/12. Finally, for a better idea of the perceived importance of physical education compared to other subjects, the third section examines the share of taught time devoted to it in curricula at both educational levels concerned.
