capacity and confidence of a pupil to engage in physical activity are developed through physical
education. It was incorporated into the academic programme by the Central Board of Secondary
Education.
The major objective of putting physical education into practice and promoting it is to create
physically literate people who have the knowledge and abilities to engage in healthy activities for
the rest of their lives. After completing the required training, individuals can continue participating
in activities without the assistance of professional trainers. The fundamental goal of physical
education is to teach students about how their bodies develop and how to take care of themselves,
which includes instruction in everything from basic hygiene to diet management. Knowing exactly
what they are doing and why they are doing it requires knowledge. This increases their knowledge

so crucial and necessary, including how it promotes children's mental health, fosters a spirit of
competition, and more. Physical education not only keeps the body in shape, but it also helps
