The Bachelor of Physical Education (B PED) aims to equip graduates with competencies that meet the cognitive, affective and psychomotor needs of PE learners. These consist of (1) a strong and substantial foundation in the subject matter (disciplinary knowledge) for educational planning, implementation and assessment; (2) a solid assessment of movement competency and proficiency; (3) pedagogical expertise for maximum student engagement; (4) self-critical reflection on quality standards and professional accountability; and (5) significant community building with relevant stakeholders.
