According to the National Association for Sport and Physical Education (NASPE) guidelines, a high-quality physical education program includes the following components: opportunity to learn, meaningful content, and appropriate instruction. Quality physical education programs should provide the student with the following benefits: Skill development – Develops motor skills that allow for safe, successful, and satisfying participation in physical activities. Regular, healthful physical activity – Provides a wide range of developmentally appropriate activities for all children and youth. It encourages young people to choose to be physically active and aware of the benefits. Improved physical fitness – Improves the health-related components of physical fitness (cardiovascular endurance, muscular strength, muscular endurance, flexibility, and body composition). Support of other subject areas – Reinforces knowledge learned in/across the curriculum and serves as a laboratory for application of content in science, math, and social studies, communication skills, and literacy. Self-discipline – Facilitates development of responsibility for personal health, safety, and fitness. Improved judgment – Influences moral development and students assume leadership roles, cooperate with others, and accept responsibility for their own behavior. Stress reduction – Physical activity becomes an outlet for releasing tension and anxiety and facilitates emotional stability and resilience. (Cox, Kathy. "PE Introduction."
