Reaching the Key Stage 2 standard in swimming
OFSTED (UK) REPORT ... Nov 2007
This survey was designed to assess the impact of recent government initiatives to improve the standards and provision of swimming at Key Stage 2.

Physical Education and School Sport (UK) QCA Investigation
The key aim is to investigate the difference that high quality PE and school sport make to young people and the impact that this has on their schools. Some of the schools are also specialist sports colleges or within a school sport coordinator (SSCo) partnership.
The schools and partnerships involved in the investigation are aiming to ensure that all their pupils spend a minimum of two hours each week on high quality PE and school sport. To achieve this, they are investing time and resources and are using a range of approaches and strategies.

P.E. Developing Educational Standards (USA)

P.E. Developing Educational Standards (USA)
Good teachers have standards in mind when they set their lessons up, where the idea of a "standard" represents a specific idea of what the teacher expects a student to recall, replicate, manipulate, understand, or demonstrate at some point down the road - and of how the teacher will know how close a student has come to meeting that standard. Standards, in other words, are conceptually nothing new - though we do seem to keep reinventing them.
We have established this page as a repository for as much information about educational standards and curriculum frameworks from all sources (national, state, local, and other) as can be found on the Internet.
