Information for students planning on getting a PE contract

Students who are registered for practical classes in PE but are training or practice a sport outside of school with a coach or trainer they can get PE credits for that training. Students need to make a special contract with their teacher and honour its terms for the contract to be valid and replace regular PE classes at school.

Further information regarding PE contracts

Students can make a contract with their PE teacher to get PE  credits for activities outside of school.

This contract must be made in the first two weeks of the semester.

Students must meet with their PE teacher when they are available (see timetables above). Students will be given a contract form to fill out. If students are under 18 they need a parent’s/guardian’s signature. For the contract to be valid students must also turn in the following documents to their PE teacher electronically before the listed deadlines:

• A confirmation of attendance from their training facility (sports club, trainer, gym etc.). Before January 22^nd.
• A one-week training diary listing type of training, goals, how the training is carried out, details and times of each training session. Before March 5^th.
• A record of attendance for the semester, minimum of 30 times. This record can be from the training facility or a record kept by the students themselves. Before May 5^th.

Students who meet these conditions will pass the course and receive a grade.

Please note the following:

• These documents can only be turned in to the PE teachers, not to any other members of school staff.
• Students on a PE contract will not get any registered absences as long as they turn in their documents on time. If they are turned in late or not at all, students will get a registered absence for PE each week until they turn in their documents. These absences are not removed.

Please note carefully that if students miss a deadline, and turn a document in late, their grade for that part of the evaluation drops to 50% of full marks.

If students fail to turn in all documents for evaluation (confirmation of attendance, one-week training diary, record of attendance) they have not honoured their contract and it is void.
