Physical Education teachers, non-physical education teachers, administrators, parents and students were surveyed regarding their perceptions of six basic issues in physical education. The purpose of the study was to establish a foundation of systematically collected information providing insight into determining the status of public school physical education. To do this, the Delphi Technique was employed to gain group consensus on the following issues: goals of P.E.; departmental organization; curriculum; comparative subject matter importance; grading procedures; and graduation/participation requirements. Descriptive statements are provided regarding the group consensus results on each issue. Differentiation between elementary, junior high and senior high results are reported where appropriate. Implications for physical educators and recommendations for further study are discussed.
