Physical Education

1.0 PREAMBLE
1.1 Introduction
This Physical Education Syllabus is designed for Infant Learners (Early Childhood Development
to Grade 2). It provides core study areas for Physical Education. The syllabus is designed to
ensure access to a Physical Education Curriculum regardless of gender, race, religion,
handicap and learners’ current level of Physical Education performance. It also serves as a
base on which to build the learners’ enterprising skills.

The syllabus promotes the development of psychomotor skills as well as ensuring that learners
develop socially, physically, emotionally, morally and cognitively. It serves as a firm foundation
for all Physical Education learning experiences. This syllabus also acts as a pathway for entry
into Junior School Physical Education studies.

Please note: At this stage, learners still have soft bones susceptible to green stick
fractures therefore safety precautions are a pre­ requisite.

1.2 Rationale
Physical Education plays an important role in the total development of the learner. Through
Physical Education, learners acquire the knowledge, skills, right attitudes and values towards
the pursuit of a lifelong physically active and healthy lifestyle. Physical Education provides a
platform and valuable opportunities to develop self- management skills.

1.3 Summary of Content

The Infant School Physical Education Syllabus will cover theory and practical activities in
human body, safety and health, balances, locomotion/movement, coordination, aquatic skills,
play and game skills and kids athletics.

1.4 Assumptions
The syllabus assumes that learners:
like physical activities such as rolling, throwing, catching, jumping and skipping
enjoy manipulating objects
enjoy playing in groups
adore playing with water
respond to given stimuli
are able to make use of Information and Communication Technology and e-learning
tools.

1.5 Cross Cutting Themes

In order to foster competency development for further studies, life and work, the following cross-
cutting priorities have to be taken into consideration in the teaching and learning of Physical
Education:
Gender and Equality
Equity
Children’s Rights
Disaster Risk Management

5.0 METHODOLOGY AND TIME ALLOCATION

5.1 Methodology
The methods suggested below overlap, are mutually supportive and not exhaustive. They all
allow or enhance a natural exploration process. Engagement of resource persons is
encouraged.
! Demonstration
! Discovery / guided discovery
! Problem solving
! Experimentation
! Discussion
! Word games/puzzles
! Quizzes, poems and rhymes
! Telling and listening to stories
! Song and dance
! Role play, drama and animation
! Simulation and questioning
! Group projects
! Educational tours
! Command
! Reciprocal

N.B: It is advisable that the learner be exposed to more than one method in a lesson.

5.2 Time Allocation

Early Childhood Development: to receive five 20 minute periods per week
Grade 1 and 2: to receive five 30 minute periods per week

Infants need this time, for it is at this stage that learners develop and acquire most of the basic
Physical Education skills. These skills lay a foundation for socialisation, teamwork and
collaboration which are the fundamental principles for participation in individual performances
to team activities.

Physical Education

9.0 ASSESSMENT
9.1 Assessment Objectives

By the end of the Infant School level, learners should be able to:
9.1.1 demonstrate social skills related to the cultural values of a Zimbabwean society
9.1.2 identify and list the uses and care of different human body organs
9.1.3 apply knowledge and understanding of health and safety concepts of Physical
Education activities
9.1.4 apply safety measures in all their daily activities
9.1.5 identify and describe the ways that lead to a healthy life style
9.1.6 keep a clean environment to ensure safety
9.1.7 execute balancing skills in various dimensions under different settings
9.1.8 apply movement skills in various ways with or without apparatus in relation to given
tasks
9.1.9 demonstrate the ability to use coordination skills in relation to given tasks
9.1.10 demonstrate fundamental coordination skills in carrying out given tasks
9.1.11 apply and evaluate skills in selected aquatic based activities
9.1.12 execute proper running, jumping and throwing techniques
9.1.13 demonstrate the ability to analyse and improve performance in Physical Education

9.2 Scheme of Assessment

The assessment will be continuous and based on achieving the learning outcomes for each
topic and grade level. Learner profiling must inform where the learner has made progress and
areas for future development in relation to the objectives.

The Learner Profile Record must state the learner’s entry abilities and potential at every level
in addition to concepts, skills and knowledge the child has acquired or developed.

Infant School Level Physical Education assessment will be based on 90% continuous
assessment and 10% summative assessment (Practical test).

The syllabus’ scheme of assessment is grounded in the principle of equalisation of opportunities

hence does not condone direct or indirect discrimination of learners.

Arrangements, accommodations and modifications must be visible in both continuous and

summative assessments to enable learners with special needs to access assessments and
receive accurate performance measurement of their abilities. Access arrangements must
neither give these learners an undue advantage over others nor compromise the standards
being assessed.

Learners who are unable to access the assessments of any component or part of component
due to disability (transitory or permanent) may be eligible to receive an award based on the
assessment they would have taken.

NB: For further details on arrangements, accommodations and modifications refer to

the assessment procedure booklet.

questions.

9.3 Summary of Assessment Tasks

recorded continuous assessment tasks per term:
- 2 Practical topic tasks
- 2 theory tests
- 1 End of term practical assessment
! One end of Infant School Level practical assessment (Summative Assessment)

All continuous assessment tasks individually contribute an equal weighting towards the final
percentage on the aggregate mark column by column.
