New stu­dents attend physical education according to their timeta­bles. For all older stu­dents physical education is shown in the timetable on Mondays but they need to org­anize their att­end­ance with their PE teacher. The following timeta­bles show when they are available. Stu­dents must meet with their PE teacher and plan their course acti­vity for the semester.

PE contract

If a stu­dent does org­an­ized physical acti­vity outside of school at least twice a week, the stu­dent can make a sports contract for a certain date and does not have to attend PE.

However, the student has to turn in three assignments/confirmations:

1.  submit confirmation that they are practicing a sport/participating in organized physical activity. Final deadline is January  17th.
2.  complete a project in Inna in the middle of the semester where they submit a practice diary. Final deadline is Febrary 27th.
3.  at the end of the semester, submit a confirmation of at least 30 practices during the semester. Final deadline is April 29th. In order complete the PE contract, all elements must be submitted.

Stu­dents under the age of 18 must obtain the signature of their guar­dians in order to enter into a PE contract.

PLEASE NOTE CAREFULLY. To apply for PE contracts stu­dents need to speak to PE teachers. All assign­ments are handed in electronically in Inna. If the stu­dent does not submit assess­ment compon­ents  A, B and C parts the stu­dent will then fail the course.

Please note that if a stu­dent turns an assign­ment in late or not at all they will get absences reg­ist­ered for PE until that assign­ment is submitted. These absences will not be corrected.

Also note carefully that if a stu­dent tuns an assign­ment in late they will not be able to get more than 50% of the credit for that assign­ment.

A student can get a 10 in the course if he submits 50 or more practices during the semester and a detailed practice diary.
