These documents relate to the development of the curriculum statement Health
and Physical Education in the New Zealand Curriculum. They are in chronological
order.
Health and Physical Well-being:
Literature reviews
These 1994 literature reviews for both health education and physical education
preceeded the development of the policy specifications for the writing of the
draft curriculum statement.
Policy Specifications for a National
Curriculum Statement in Health and Physical Education
These specifications prepared by the policy advisory group in 1995
formed the basis for the development of the curriculum statement.
Physical Education: Liberate It Or Confine
It To The Gymnasium?
This paper by Ian Culpan, originally published in Delta: Policy
and Practice in Education (1996/1997), examines the position
of physical education within the New Zealand Curriculum Framework
and the development of the Draft Health and Physical Education Curriculum
Statement (1996). It does so in terms of the political context of
education change in New Zealand. This paper should not be read as
Ministry of Education policy.
For Whose Benefit? The Politics of Developing
A Health Education Curriculum
This paper by Gillian Tasker, originally published in Delta:
Policy and Practice in Education (1996/1997), describes curriculum
development processes, key contemporary concepts underlying health
education, issues in learning and teaching health education, equity
issues which have implications for such a curriculum, and aspects
of a post-modern approach to health education, all of which have
informed this development process. This paper should not be read
as Ministry of Education policy.
Developing the Draft Statement
This material, reproduced from Curriculum Development Update
29, 1998, describes the process the Ministry of Education employed
to develop the curriculum statement.
Responses to the Draft
This material published in November 1998 provides an overview of

from schools and other interested parties, responses from trial
schools and regional consultations schools, and questionnaire responses.
