Perception of the quality of physical education teaching in schools

This article analyzes the quality of physical education in schools based on graduates’ assessments. The objectives included examining perceptions of teacher professionalism, program diversity, lesson conditions, and the impact of physical education on self-esteem and attitudes toward sports. The study authors present the results of an online survey conducted with 55 graduates, primarily aged 18–22. It is concluded that the majority of respondents evaluate their teachers positively and retain warm emotional memories. However, some problems were also identified, namely formalistic standards, limited choice, and isolated instances of unsatisfactory conditions. Graduates expect a more individualized, flexible, and supportive system of physical education teaching.
