Fitness to be added to the 2015 Leaving Certificate Curriculum

Mossess · 2012-01-31 15:24:51

OK, not yet, but would you be happy if Fitness was to be added to the 2015 Leaving Certificate Curriculum? If your level of fitness was to assessed during the year as a leaving cert subject would you be happy? It could be worth the same points as any other subject regarding college entry. Obviously it wouldn’t suit some…

Fitness should be taught as a part of PE rather than a whole subject to itself. It doesn't make sense to have two subjects that could easily be integrated. In fact, we learned about body types, different types of activity, etc. in our PE class.
