Abstract: | This study was conducted by two Bachelor of Education under graduates taking Physical Education as their main subject at the Faculty of Education of the University of Malta. The main aim was to discover new trends and practices that are emerging in Western Europe, as regards Physical Education and Sport. Another aim was to compare thee situation of Physical Education and Sport in Western Europe with that in Malta. The study first gives an account of the History of Physical Education and Sport. This helps us understand better the trends that are popular today. It then goes on to discuss and compare the situation in various West European countries including Malta. The study was based on curricula, observation in Maltese schools, interviews held with local teachers, questionnaires answered, and information sent by foreign Education Departments. It resulted that although our prescribed curriculum is up to standard, the actual situation of Physical Education and Sport in Malta leaves much to be desired compared to other West European countries. One thing which we were not expecting but which came out quiet clearly from our study was that the Maltese Physical Education teachers are far from pleased with the conditions they are working in. The conclusive chapter highlights some points that might help to improve the situation of Physical Education and Sport in Malta. |
