Effects of Physical Education into Improving the Quality of the Students’ Achievements in the High Education Institutions

Abstract

Relations between the exercising thereof and the students’ participation in physical and sports activities, on one side and their academic achievements and social performance on the other, has been a much-discussed topic both in the narrow sportive ambiances and the wider social ones. In these terms, critics say that participation of students into physical and sportive activities diverts them from school and distracts their attention from studying, whereas supporters of the sportive programmes into the educational institutions back the idea that, on the contrary, they effect the amelioration of the academic achievements as well as bring improvements to their social performance. The aim of this writing is to present facts and data brought out by canvassing students of certain high schools which support the idea of the effects of the physical activities and sports into ameliorating the students’ achievements and their educative, learning and social performance.
