1. PDHPE Rationale
Teaching PDHPE in Primary Schools is important
so that children learn skills that will be invaluable
to them all throughout the course of their lives.
PDHPE teaches students how to:
2. Make the right lifestyle choices which promote good
health and well-being in regards to balanced eating
and nutrition.
3. Participate in different forms of physical
activity including sports and dance and
understand why it is important to maintain
an active lifestyle.
4. Value what makes them special and value
what makes a good relationship.
5. Recognise safe and unsafe situations and
understand what options are available for
them to seek help if they need it.
