What Foundation Health & PE students should achieve
Coverage is judged against the achievement standard — not by ticking every content description. These are the official Foundation Health & PE standard sentences this code builds towards:
- They identify and demonstrate protective behaviours and help-seeking strategies to keep themselves safe.
- Students apply fundamental movement skills to manipulate objects and space in a range of movement situations.
- By the end of Foundation, students describe similarities and differences between themselves and others, and different emotions people experience.
- Students identify the benefits of being physically active and how rules make play fair and inclusive.
- Students identify how health information can be used in their lives.
- They demonstrate personal and social skills to interact respectfully with others.
