Closed Require schools have at least one Physical Education lesson a day

Closed on

I think that the national curriculum should require that pupils have one lesson of Physical Education everyday.

Exercise is proven to improve mental health and ability to focus, which could help schoolchildren learn. If schoolchildren have one lesson of Physical Education ever day they could learn more and have better mental health, which should in turn improve their progress in school. It will also benefit their physical well-being.
