Whole-school approach

Many studies in recent years have shown the effectiveness of physical education and sports (PES) as a vehicle for teaching values and personal development among youth. However, despite research showing values transference is crucial for optimal learning, a gap in the literature remains regarding the strategies and methods underlying values transference beyond the PES context. This chapter will identify the strategies and methods that facilitate the transfer of values learned in physical education (PE) to the classroom and home settings. Based on empirical evidence, we found that the collaborative work between the stakeholders within a school’s setting through a whole-school approach was an important strategy in teaching and transferring values beyond PE. Practical strategies will be provided to enhance the learning and transfer of values in PE to the classroom and home settings.
