The Essential Role of PDHPE in Primary Education for Healthy Development

Personal Development, Health and Physical Education (PDHPE) is vital in primary education, fostering healthy individuals with essential life skills and knowledge. It equips children with tools for a sustainable lifestyle, encourages physical activity through interactive and fun methods, and promotes positive life principles. Teachers should adopt the 'Game Sense' approach, allowing free play and inclusivity in PE lessons while addressing personal and social issues objectively. By modeling healthy behaviors and encouraging nutritious eating habits, PDHPE lays the foundation for lifelong health and well-being.
