• Is directly concerned with supporting
the development of the student as a
whole person.

• Plays a unique role in the development
of students’ knowledge, understandings
and practical skills that lead to better
health.

knowledge, understanding, skills,
values and attitudes that will
enable them to lead healthy and
fulfilling lives.
3. PDHPE
• encourages an understanding
and valuing of self and others

making leading to effective
and responsible action
