Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE)
has planned to introduce a streamlined and well-designed Health and
Physical Education Programme to mainstream health and physical education
in schools especially for students of class 9 to 10. This programme
will be introduced from next session and will be compulsory for all
affiliated schools of the board.
"CBSE has decided to mainstream
Health and Physical Education for classes IX to XII with the aim of
holistic development of the child, leading to a well-balanced individual
in all walks of life," said a statement from the board.
"The aim
of Mainstreaming Health and Physical Education is also to enable the
students to attain an optimum state of health. Therefore, CBSE aims to
provide a focussed curriculum for Health and Physical Education imbued
with Life Skills in all its affiliated schools," the statement added.
Keeping
this in view, CBSE has asked schools that while preparing time-table
for session 2018-19, one period every day may be reserved for Health and
Physical Education especially for class 9 to 12 from session 2018-19
onwards.
It also said the transactional strategies, detailed
guidelines and methodology for administering HPE (Health and Physical
Education) to students will be available on CBSE website shortly.
