What Year 5 Health & PE students should achieve
Coverage is judged against the achievement standard — not by ticking every content description. These are the official Year 5 Health & PE standard sentences this code builds towards:
- By the end of Year 6, students explain how different factors influence identities.
- Students refine and modify movement skills and apply movement concepts across a range of situations.
- Students explain how communication skills, protective behaviours and help-seeking strategies keep themselves and others safe online and offline.
- They propose strategies to manage emotions, developmental changes and transitions.
- They propose strategies to demonstrate respect, empathy and inclusion.
- They describe contributions they can make as a group and team member to support fair play and inclusion across a range of movement contexts.
