Year 9 Health and Physical Education Achievement Standard

By the end of Year 10, students propose and evaluate personal strategies to manage their identities, emotions and responses to change. They evaluate how attitudes and beliefs about equality, respect, diversity and inclusion influence the nature and quality of relationships. Students propose and justify strategies to manage online and offline situations where their own or others’ health, safety, relationships or wellbeing may be at risk. They synthesise health information from credible sources to propose and justify strategies to enhance their own and others’ health, safety, relationships and wellbeing. Students evaluate and refine their own and others’ movement skills and performances, and apply movement concepts in challenging or unfamiliar situations. They adapt and transfer movement strategies to unfamiliar situations to achieve successful outcomes. Students propose and evaluate community-based physical activity interventions designed to improve the health, fitness and wellbeing of themselves and others. They apply and evaluate leadership approaches, collaboration strategies and ethical behaviours across a range of movement contexts.
