Physical education is not given the importance that it deserves. It is still considered a co-curricular activity or a hobby for some. It should be as considered as important as any other subject like English.
Worldwide it is accepted as a part of curriculum but unfortunately in Pakistan physical education is taken as worthless or as a sport. Its importance, need and scope are not understood clearly. It can help us in many social ways. The psychological behaviour can be controlled by physical education.
As only a healthy body has a healthy mind, this can actually help in remaining healthy and fit. It should be made a part of curriculum.
