Evaluating Physical Education Instructional Programs in Delhi Schools
Year: 2025
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: : The aim of this study was to assess and compare the effectiveness of Physical Education Instructional Programs in Delhi’s private and government schools using a self-developed questionnaire. A total of Sixty Two (62) Physical Education Teachers participated, with Thirty One (31) from private schools and Thirty One (31) from government schools, selected through Stratified Random Sampling to ensure representation from both school types. Descriptive statistics (Mean and Standard Deviation) were used to analyze the data, while an Independent ‘t’ test at a 0.05 significance level was employed for comparison. The results indicated that private schools had a slightly higher mean score (38.87) compared to government schools (37.35), suggesting marginally better performance in private school instructional programs. However, the t-test showed no statistically significant difference between the two groups (p = 0.275). These findings imply that while some schools offer well-structured Physical Education programs, challenges such as inadequate teacher training and limited resources may impact the quality of programs in others. Overall, the study concludes that the quality of Physical Education Instructional Programs in both private and government schools in Delhi is similar, with only minor differences. This highlights the need for improvements across all schools to ensure equal opportunities for student success in Physical Education.
