What Year 7 Health & PE students should achieve
Coverage is judged against the achievement standard — not by ticking every content description. These are the official Year 7 Health & PE standard sentences this code builds towards:
- They analyse how stereotypes, respect, empathy and valuing diversity influence relationships.
- Students analyse the effectiveness of assertive communication strategies, protective behaviours and help-seeking strategies applied online and offline.
- They implement and evaluate the effectiveness of movement strategies on movement outcomes.
- By the end of Year 8, students analyse factors that influence identities, emotions and responses to change, and describe strategies to respond to these influences.
- Students propose and evaluate strategies designed to achieve personal health, fitness and wellbeing outcomes.
- Students apply and transfer movement skills and movement concepts across a range of situations.
