Now known as Human Movement & High Performance at James Meehan High School
We oversee the delivery of the PDHPE 7-12 curriculum as well as, school and representative sport.
PD/H/PE aims to develop in each student the knowledge, skills and attitudes needed to understand, value and lead healthy and fulfilling lifestyles. It makes a significant contribution to preparing students to take a responsible and productive role in society and to developing in them a commitment to life planning.
Personal Development, Health and Physical Education (PDHPE) is a mandatory course that is studied in each of Years 7–10 with at least 300 hours to be completed by the end of Year 10. This is a requirement for completion of Stage 5 and progression to Stage 6. A grade is awarded on the Record of School Achievement.
PDHPE develops students' capacity to enhance personal health and well-being. It promotes their enjoyment of and commitment to an active lifestyle and to achieve confidence and competence in a wide range of physical activities. Through PDHPE students develop knowledge and understanding, skills and values and attitudes that enable them to advocate lifelong health and physical activity.
