If your math teachers are hogging up your PT period, we have good news for you. According to reports, students from class 1 to 8 in a CBSE-affiliated school will now have one period every
day for Health and Physical Education. This announcement has come after the program was made a compulsory part of the Health and Physical Education program for classes 9 to 12. THE MAIN
PURPOSE OF THIS PROGRAM IS TO MAKE HEALTH AND PHYSICAL EDUCATION A PRIMARY FOCUS IN A STUDENT’S LIFE AND TO FOCUS ON THEIR HOLISTIC DEVELOPMENT. CBSE spokesperson, Rama Sharma, said, The
motive is to include physical activity in children’s daily routine. If a child shows interest or has the capability to do well in certain games or athletics they will be provided with
focused training too. Reports also add that a special syllabus will be introduced for children with special needs. The use of sign language, wheelchairs will be introduced to make sure that
specially-abled children don’t miss out. Yoga will also be a part of the CBSE curriculum. THERE WILL ALSO BE NO THEORY CLASSES FOR THE SAME AND THE PRACTICAL CLASSES WILL BE DIVIDED INTO
FOUR STRANDS. EACH STUDENT WILL REQUIRED TO TAKE UP AT LEAST ONE ACTIVITY AND WILL HAVE THE OPTION OF CHANGING IT THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. Strand one includes athletics, team games, adventure
sports, individual games and swimming. Strand two consists of health and fitness, and strand three is for Social Empowerment through Work Education and Action (SEWA). Lastly, strand four is
for health and activity card. ADVERTISEMENT People on Twitter added their own opinion to this implementation. > @DrRPNishank @cbseindia29 @HRDMinistry compulsory health & physical
