CBSE: Physical education mandatory for classes 9-12
Soon physical education will become a mandatory subjects for classes 9-12 in all the CBSE affiliated schools as CBSE has mandated the guidelines for the schools to have daily sports period. The main aim of the move is to keep the students away from the sedentary lifestyle and to protect keep them from becoming couch potatoes. With the health as a main focus of the CBSE, it will be mandatory for the schools to have a sports period during which students will have to go to the playground but will be free to perform any physical activity listed in the manual and will be graded accordingly. “Health is often a state of physical, mental, emotional, social and spiritual well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. Hence, we have decided to mainstream health and physical education for class 9 to 12 with the aim of preventing them from having a sedentary lifestyle or turn into couch potatoes,” a senior CBSE official told PTI. The school has also prepared a 150 page manual for the schools detailing the sport guideline and how to implement them. The “Health and Physical Education (HPE)” will be different from the Physical Education (PE) elective which is offered to the students of classes 10-12. “Earlier, there used to be two co-scholastic areas — Health and Physical Education and Work Education. Now the two have been merged and the total periods allocated for the two will be used for HPE. This will ensure that schools are under no pressure of adjusting the time tables at the cost of academic subjects,” the official said. “The whole process of HPE will be school-based and will be evaluated and implemented by school teachers only. The marks or grades will have to be submitted by schools on the CBSE website,” the official added. Participation in the HPE will be mandatory to be eligible for the board exams but marks will not be added for the final assessment.
