*Physical Education and Health, although closely linked, are separate marks on students
reports. Physical Education is divided in two parts: Active Living (Participation and
Fitness) and Movement Competence (Skills and Strategies). Living Skills are assessed
through the expectations in other strands and cover students personal and interpersonal
skills and creative and critical thinking.
