Resumen

The works for quality development of physical education turned to be a worldwide
concern when UNESCO proposed the International Charter for Physical Education and
Sport in 1978. The movement for quality physical education was then established with
main focus on different perspectives that covered issues from human right to the
curriculum development, teaching, sport coaching, professional training, research and
international collaboration and related policy making. The coming of documents such as
NASPER’s benchmark in physical education in 2004, UNESCO Report on Quality of
Physical Education and Sport (2005), Strategies to Improve the Quality of Physical
Education by CDC in 2010 and the recent Quality Physical Education – Guidelines for
Policy Makers by UNESCO (2015) were the initiatives to provide rich resources in
forming the basic framework for quality development of physical education. Nevertheless,
the report on physical education by Ken Hardman in 2008 indicated the worry as “mixed
messages” was presented due to strong evidence of national commitment on physical
education but slow to transform this initiation with full action and concrete
implementation plan. “What goes wrong?” seemed to be the question that needs a
response if the quality development of physical education is regarded as the way to
improve the quality of students’ learning. The four association members of ICSP
(ISCPES, IAPESGW, IFAPA and FIEP) launched a research project on Quality Physical
Education (QPE) in 2011 with aims to understand the concept of QPE. This paper shared
the findings from the QPE research and illustrated about the possible strategies for future
development of QPE in schools. Proper investment and appropriate strategies with
innovative works on steps and phases seemed to be the best option for development of
core elements in QPE. While those elements there were in improvement stage, substantial
