Society & culture

Appreciation of cultural values which exist within groups, organisations, and communities.

Society & culture

What it could look like:

  • Understanding the cultural values that belong to teams, clubs and communities
  • Appreciating differences between people, and respecting another person's values and points of view

Pre-foundational - Stage 0

I have the potential to learn through movement and physical activity.  At this stage I have not developed the ability to interact effectively with others.

Foundation & Exploration - Stage 1

Establishes and explores appreciation of own cultural values through movement and physical activity experiences.

  • Understanding the values of a team or club e.g. being involved in the set up and pack up of equipment at training sessions
  • Formulating personal values when participating in movement and physical activity settings e.g. shaking hands with and congratulating opponents

Acquisition & Accumulation - Stage 2

Appreciates own and others' cultural values through movement and physical activity experiences.

  • Demonstrating, and passing on, the cultural values of a team, club or community e.g. singing a team song
  • Playing games and sports from different cultures in order to learn more about cultural traditions e.g. Traditional Indigenous Games, Gaelic Football, Capoeira

Consolidation & Mastery - Stage 3

Respects diversity within and between cultures, and understands how cultural values can influence movement and physical activity experiences.

  • Recognising and respecting the cultural values of team mates, group members and opponents
  • Being aware of, and challenging cultural stereotypes and prejudices that may exist in movement and physical activity

Transfer & Empowerment - Stage 4

I am empowered by movement and physical activity. I continually transfer my skills, knowledge and feelings to different movement and physical activity contexts. I use combinations of elements from all four domains, and apply my learnings through movement and physical activity to other aspects of my life.

  • Moving to a new community and having the confidence to join a new group/club (e.g. tennis, parkrun) with the purpose of building new relationships. You select this particular group/club as you have previously enjoyed similar sports/activities (e.g. badminton, athletics), and feel you have already developed the knowledge and physical competency required to progress in the group/club.
