Cambridge IGCSE Physical Education

A course on Cambridge IGCSE Physical Education was being conducted by the University of Cambridge International Examinations in Brunei, at the Gymnasium of Maktab Sains. And i attended it.

Talking about Maktab Sains, the facilities there amazed me. Although its not that PERFECT..But it is way better than some school. However, no comparison should be made. They have the budget and all..

Back to the course which i have attended.......this course was talking about having P.E (Physical Education) in form 4 and 5. Imagine...P.E was not even a subject before..and now...P.E is going to have theory test and even practical test. Can students take it??

Well, I think its a VERY good thing actually. Because it could help to improve the standard of living and health of Students/ people in Brunei. There are a lot to be done to have P.E being brought into form 4 and 5 as a subject which is as important as other subjects. Few school in Brunei, in Bandar Seri Begawan is going to work on the scheme next year. Wish them luck!!

Throughout the two days, during the course..teachers were actually being briefed on how and what to teach from the syllabus as well as how to assess and mark the students. Students are actually being filmed when they do their practicals. That is a must...as an evidence and the films are to be sent to Cambridge.

On 18th Nov. 2009....teachers are to assess and put the students according to their rank, level and marks. This is where teachers are to be very very very observative....


Eric, the lecturer...was telling the students what to do....
