This paper explores the scientific evidence that has been gathered on the contributions and benefits of physical education and sport in schools for both children and for educational systems. The review suggests that physical education have the potential to make significant and distinctive contributions to development in each of these domains. It is suggested that physical education have the potential to make distinctive contributions to the development of children’s fundamental movement skills and physical competences, which are necessary precursors of participation in later lifestyle and sporting physical activities.
