NATIONAL GOALS OF EDUCATION
Education in Kenya should:

Foster nationalism and patriotism and promote national unity. Kenya’s people belong to different communities, races and religions, but these differences need not divide them. They must be able to live and interact as Kenyans. It is a paramount duty of education to help young people acquire this sense of nationhood by removing conflicts and promoting positive attitudes of mutual respect which enable them to live together in harmony and foster patriotism in order to make a positive contribution to the life of the nation.
Promote the social, economic, technological and industrial needs for national development.
Education should prepare the youth of the country to play an effective and productive role in the life of the nation.
1. Social Needs
  Education in Kenya must prepare children for changes in attitudes and relationships which are necessary for the smooth progress of a rapidly developing modern economy. There is bound to be a silent social revolution following in the wake of rapid modernization. Education should assist our youth to adapt to this change.
2. Economic Needs
  Education in Kenya should produce citizens with the skills, knowledge, expertise and personal qualities that are required to support a growing economy. Kenya is building up a modern and independent economy which is in need of an adequate and relevant domestic workforce.
3. Technological and Industrial Needs
  Education in Kenya should provide learners with the necessary skills and attitudes for industrial development. Kenya recognizes the rapid industrial and technological changes taking place, especially in the developed world. We can only be part of this development if our education system is deliberately focused on the knowledge, skills and attitudes that will prepare our young people for these changing global trends.
Promote individual development and self-fulfillment
Education should provide opportunities for the fullest development of individual talents and personality. It should help children to develop their potential interests and abilities. A vital aspect of individual development is the building of character.
Promote sound moral and religious values.
Education should provide for the development of knowledge, skills and attitudes that will enhance the acquisition of sound moral values and help children to grow up into self-disciplined, self-reliant and integrated citizens.
Promote social equality and responsibility.
Education should promote social equality and foster a sense of social responsibility within an education system which provides equal educational opportunities for all. It should give all children varied and challenging opportunities for collective activities and corporate social service irrespective of gender, ability or geographical environment.
Promote respect for and development of Kenya’s rich and varied cultures.
Education should instill in the youth of Kenya an understanding of past and present cultures and their valid place in contemporary society. Children should be able to blend the best of traditional values with the changing requirements that must follow rapid development in order to build a stable and modern society.
Promote international consciousness and foster positive attitudes towards other nations.
Kenya is part of the international community. It is part of the complicated and interdependent network of peoples and nations. Education should therefore lead the youth of the country to accept membership of this international community with all the obligations and responsibilities, rights and benefits that this membership entails.
Promote positive attitudes towards good health and environmental protection.
Education should inculcate in young people the value of good health in order for them to avoid indulging in activities that will lead to physical or mental ill health. It should foster positive attitudes towards environmental development and conservation. It should lead the youth of Kenya to appreciate the need for a healthy environment.

LEARNING OUTCOMES FOR MIDDLE SCHOOL
By the end of Middle School, the learner should be able to:

Apply literacy, numeracy and logical thinking skills for appropriate self-expression.
Communicate effectively, verbally and non-verbally, in diverse contexts.
Demonstrate social skills, spiritual and moral values for peaceful co-existence.
Explore, manipulate, manage and conserve the environment effectively for learning and sustainable development.
Practice relevant hygiene, sanitation and nutrition skills to promote health.
Demonstrate ethical behavior and exhibit good citizenship as a civic responsibility.

Manage pertinent and contemporary issues in society effectively.
Apply digital literacy skills for communication and learning.

ESSENCE STATEMENT

Physical Education (PE) is the learning and development of fundamental movement skills and ability to use them safely for active and healthy lifestyles. Sports is any activity that involves physical exertion and skills where an individual participates for recreation or reward. The inclusion of PE and Sports in the curriculum ensures promotion of sports and sports education (The Constitution of Kenya 2010- 4th Schedule). This subject combines both aspects where, PE builds a foundation for identification of sporting talent, which can later be developed and nurtured in the schools’ informal curriculum set-up during games and sports.

Participation in sports encourages the learner to relate positively and engage in movement experiences that promote and support the development of social skills such as values, attitudes and wellbeing. Physical Education and Sports incorporates the experiences and skills gained in upper primary and also introduces new knowledge and skills such as evaluation of the fitness components developed during learning. It also exposes learners to multiple skills in a variety of

games to lay foundation for the Sports pathway in senior school. It fosters competencies and life skills that enable the learner to understand the significance that sport plays in promoting a fair and just society. This is strongly supported by the social constructivist theory of Vygotsky that highlights the fundamental role of social interaction in learning.

SUBJECT GENERAL LEARNING OUTCOMES

exhibit positive intrapersonal and interpersonal skills of communication during play
perform skills that promote physical fitness and hygiene for a healthy lifestyle
explore natural abilities in sports to nurture talent for personal development.

demonstrate patriotism and nationalism through participation in sports and games
