Pros and cons
Pros- There are a number of benefits from PDHPE STAGE 2 which are mentioned below:
Value and attitude: A number of changes in value as an attitude of a child can be seen as
they grow. They start to accept them self and the changes happening in their physical and
mental state. They also gain physical, social, intellectual and emotional development in a
unique way. They also come to know about the realistic perception and personal capabilities
through this. This also helps in development of cultural value in a student. They learn about
their culture and are accepted well in society.
Sense of belonging: PDHPE SATGE 2 helps a child in realising how they are making
changes in life of others. They start recognising the contribution made by them towards the
society and also start appreciating the importance of family in their life (Newton and et. al.,
2020). They start showing commitment and developing positive relationships with everyone
around them. They start valuing relationships in their life and also understand the need to
work with cooperation.
Realization of potential: it also helps a student in realising their actual and full potential.
They start acknowledging the effort‘s and also achieving the results through the efforts made
by them. They also recognise the technical qualities of movement and their aesthetics’. They
start appreciating the skilled performances and the features of it. Quality becomes important
to them and they strive to achieve quality in their performances. They also start valuing the
contribution and the support which begins from others in order to make sure that they achieve
a quality performance.
Communication: during this process a number of communication tools are used within the
group. A student loans to share ideas, opinions as well as their feelings with others about any
issue going on with them. These issues my may include bullying for passive smoking. It is
also seen that students start participating in a number of group activities and games which

include large groups. They also learnt radius role place and traffic rules which help them in
being a good citizen (Evans and Rawlings, 2019). While enhancing their communication
skills a student also comes to know that how can they complain or state a problem or even
disagree with someone in a way that they do not get offended. Along with communication
skills the listening skills of student is also per focus on which is an important part of
communication. There are also various language included at this stage which prove to be a
benefit for this course as it enhances communication skills..
Decision-making: it also enables the student to make their own decisions and also put the
decision in foreword of an individual or in a group. They learnt to use the various advantages
and disadvantages of all the options available discussing it among the group and coming to an
ultimate decision. The process of decision-making is understood by them in which they
gather information, compare all the possible decisions and then choose the best possible
decision for the given situation.
Cons- Along with all the benefits of PDHPE STAGE 2 there are also certain drawbacks for
this program some of the drawbacks are mentioned below:
Uneven results: it is often seen that student choose this as an escape from their rest of the
curriculum because they consider PDHPE STAGE 2 to be easier then rest of their academy
subjects (Lim, 2019). It is also seen that coaches are often criticise for including this in the
curriculum because it is often seen that the athletic kids are supported by coaches, whereas all
those who are not that good in the sports are ignored by them. It is important that equal
attention is paid to every student and also more attention must be given to the weaker ones so
that equal development and even results can be seen in them.
Lack of choices: It is many a times seen that students opt for this because they do not have a
number of choices available with them and they are forced to participate in this. They do not
want to perform and which results in absenteeism. It is necessary that the educators make
sure students taking part in this programmed are not forced to do it but they have interest in
this.
Analysing all the above pros and cons of PDHPE stage 2 it can be concluded that the
course is definitely beneficial to students rather than some of its drawbacks. It brings in
empathy and respect in students regarding their empathy relationship. When focusing on
content of stage 2 specifically it helps in exploring aboriginal cultures in order to show
respect to community.it also brings in a sense of belonging in those community which might
have a long-term effect on the overall cultural background of country. Other than this there
are various other elements which are focused on development of a student physically,
mentally as well as emotionally which sums up the importance of this course.

CONCLUSION
It can be concluded from the above-mentioned report that there are various merits and
demerits of the program which are directly related to performance of individuals and
understanding of this program. Because of direct interaction of NSW and NESA, there
number of problems arises which have to be clearly identified and sold for increasing the
effectiveness and involvement of students within this program. Also increase the chances of
success of the relative program and involvement of number of student which can reduce the
crime rate as well as help in maintaining effective society within whole UK and western part
of UK.
