英國中小學體育課程改革之研究

本文旨在分析英格蘭境內近年來中小學課程改革之結果，從內文分析當中可以得到幾項結論。首先，英國於1992年起至今歷經5次重要之國定體育課程改革。從官方文件分析可以得知，從幼兒教育至後期中等教育的體育課程，以最新一版的內容而言，英國政府重視的面向包含：全民運動、競技型運動、游泳、體適能、實務性操作大於理論課程、社區及校外資源的挹注及推廣等。其次，英國政府直至1992年起才設立掌管全國體育推廣之中央政府單位，1997年起更名為文化、媒體與運動部。直至今日，此單位所推動之諸多重要體育政策，確實協助中小學體育推展具有重大貢獻。最後，文化、媒體與運動部於2000年起與其下轄單位其非官方組織合作，協助推動中小學體育課程與校外資源、俱樂部連結工程，幫助學生除在學校參與體育課程之外，亦能利用課餘時間進行校外體育活動。

This article is mainly to examine the curriculum reform of the physical education in primary and high schools in England in the last two decades. There are four findings concluded as results of this study. First, the government of England has experienced the curriculum reforms of the national physical education for five times since 1992. Second, for the England pupils from Key Stage 1 to Key Stage 4, the latest version of the national physical education curriculum stresses the importance of taking exercise for all, competitive sports, swim, physical fitness, the practices of physical education, and the connection between schools and the communities such as NGOs and NPOs. Third, there was no central official organization to govern the physical education in the UK since 1992 until 1997 when the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) was first established. The DCMS indeed has made significant contributions to the improvements of the physical education in England over the past twenty years. Finally, the DCMS co-operated with other government offices and NGOs since 2000 to provide with the resources and spaces for primary and high school students to take out-of-school and after-school physical exercises.
