two separate words, “Physical” and “Education”.
The plain dictionary meaning of the word
physical is ‘related to the body’, it may relate to
anyone or all of the bodily characteristics. It
may be physical strength, physical endurance,
physical fitness, physical appearance or physical
health. The word “Education” means systematic
instructions, training or preparation for life or
for some particular task.

systematic instructions or training which relate to physical
activities or programme of activities necessary for the

of physical power or cultivation of physical skills. Physical
education is the education by means of physical activity.

physical development and advances towards perfect
development of human beings.
