Solution
Definition according to The Association for Physical Education (AFPE), the United Kingdom:
Physical education is the planned, progressive learning that takes place in school curriculum time-tabled time and which is delivered to all pupils. This involves both "learning to move" (i.e., becoming more physically competent) and "moving to learn" (i.e., learning through movement, a range of skills and understanding beyond physical activity, such as co-operating with others). The context for learning is physical activity, with children experiencing a broad range of activities, including sport and dance.
