Key Differences
Refer to the
Then and Now Chart
Outcomes Approach
• Moved from teacher objectives to student
learning outcomes
• Knowledge and skills SLO’s for each GLO
• Attitude indicators for each GLO
• All outcomes are compulsory with local
decision-making authority for treatment of
potentially sensitive content (i.e. personal
safety, substance use and abuse prevention,
human sexuality)
Active and Interactive Approach
• Emphasizes a skill-based approach
using a high level of physically
active and interactive learning
experiences
Combined Approach
PE
PE/HE
HE
Recommended Minimum Time Allotments
• Grades K-6: 11% of the instructional time
– 11% x 300 min/day x 6 day/cycle=198
min.
– 75% PE = 150 min/6 day cycle
– 25% HE= 48 min/6 day cycle
• Grades 7-8: 9% of the instructional time
– 9% x 330 min/day x 6 day cycle =178 min.
– 75%PE = 134min/6 day cycle
– 25%HE= 44 min/6 day cycle
• Additional health time through integration in
various subject areas
Integrated Approach
MA
LA
PE/HE
SC
SS
• Health components
are integrated in
other subject
areas (See Curricular
Connections Chart last
page of Framework
Excerpts or handout)
Locally-Determined Delivery Model
• Delivery models are to
be determined by
school divisions/
schools based on best
practices through a
collaborative planning
process (refer to
Appendix C in the
Framework)
Examples of
Delivery Models
• All Physical Education specialist taught
• PE taught by PE specialist, HE taught by
classroom teacher, school counsellor,
and/or other
• All classroom teacher taught
• Continuous
• Block
• Involve parents, families, communities
Local Decision-Making Authority
for Treatment of Potentially
Sensitive Content
• School/Division/District Planning
Process must be used to determine
local policy related to potentially
sensitive content
• Schools must seek parental
involvement
• Schools must provide a parental
option prior to implementation
Compulsory Outcomes for
Potentially Sensitive Content
• Personal Safety
(GLO 3: Safety-Strand B, Safety of
Self and Others)
• Substance Use and Abuse Prevention
(GLO 5: Healthy Lifestyle Practices)
• Human Sexuality
(GLO 5: Healthy Lifestyle Practices)

Safety and Liability
• Teachers are
expected to provide
“professional”
standard of care
rather than “the
careful and prudent
parent” standard of
care especially in high
risk type of
activities.
Safety and Liability Criteria
• The Supreme Court of Canada has established four
criteria to determine the necessary and appropriate
standard of care within the context of physical
education:
– Is the activity suitable to the age, mental, and
physical condition of participating students?
– Have the students been progressively taught and
coached to perform the activity(ies) properly and
to avoid the dangers inherent in the activity(ies)?
– Is the equipment adequate and suitably arranged?
– Is the activity being supervised properly in light of
the inherent danger involved?
Programming for
Students with Special Needs
• Modifications
• Adaptations
• Accommodations
(new policy related
to adjustment of
physical skillbased outcomes)
Accommodation Example
• S.1.8.A.2 Perform
combinations of manipulation
skills (e.g.,
dribbling/shooting,
tossing/catching...), applying
mechanical principles on use
of projectiles (e.g.,
increasing relative projection
height or angle tends to
increase flight time...) for
control.
• Describe or indicate using
pictures, the proper form
and the effects of force on
flight patterns for control
using others to demonstrate.
