Thank you so much for watching! Hope you enjoyed it!
If you're new to my channel and videos, hi! I'm Evan Edinger, and I make weekly "comedy" videos every Sunday evening. As an American living in London I love noticing the funny differences between the cultures and one of my most popular video series is my British VS American one. I'm also known for making terrible puns so sorry in advance. Hope to see you around, and I'll see you next Sunday! :)

Who remembers the blue climbing frames in British primary schools
Mine were brown
Too well. 😂😂😂
tea same but rarely used same with secondary(High) school
ours were yellow but when you were sat in your plimsolls on the blue mat that’s as hard as concrete and you saw that climbing frame being pulled off the wall… that was a different type of excitement
@@fitchhateclub in our school we were sat on either the wafer thin blue mats or on the wooden benches, we also had to either have our black plimsols on or we had to do it bare foot
PE stands for public embarrassment
Lottie Gibbons what I think in school
For PE I change out which is when I take off my clothes, execpt for my bra and underwear, then change into my shorts and shirt. Low self-esteem city!
Or pointless exercise
truer words have never been spoken
Lottie Gibbons no it doesnt, it stands for physical education
Evan, your next video needs to be you trying the bleep test.
oh GOD
I could just see it....I'm terrible at it and hated it in school lol
Ali Jardz yEs
I love how all Americans know exactly what you are talking about. And are all equally horrified.
Isn't the bleep test just the pacer in America?
My P.E lessons in England: Bench ball, doge ball, badminton and falling of the treadmills in the gym.
our gym didn’t even have treadmills
My school didn't have a gym 😂
@@blaqkdown They are not my idea of fun. :)
No one fell off treadmills in my school.
@@wolfheart8604 Well I was unfortunate.
It's confirmed: whether it's British or American, exercise is not for me.
LaytonChronicles Confirmed.
Same
LaytonChronicles ayy same, love your vids :)
LaytonChronicles Y E S
agreed
"the bell doesn't dismiss you, I do"
i replied to that with 'if it doesnt dismiss me then it doesnt decide when i get to school' . i got after schools for a week
Wait... so what’s the point of the bell
@@eimearkeaveney1192 To try to transform students into robots
The bleep test sounds exactly like the pacer test.
the pacer test is living hell
Yeah it’s the same as the pacer. That test is horrible.
Helen Cui we usually do the mile every week so when it would be raining or wet outside we would do the pacer
Helen Cui yeah, I don’t mind tests, I like gym and I am a girl
yes i hate the pacer... my school also does min. runs and when your in 8th grade you have to run 6 and 12 min. uggggg i die😂
Triple jump is so weird. I can't imagine how it was invented except by someone recovering from a stumble and making it work.
we have the "bleep test" in america too (at least in new york) and its called "the fitness gram pacer test"
The pacer
Aka death.
Here in California we have them as well but sometimes we call them suicides
War Hawk
Ain’t that the truth.
The Pacer, A.K.A a living piece of Hell.
The fitness gram pacer test is a multistage areobic fitness capacity test that progressively gets faster as you continue.
FUCK YOU
OH MY GOOODD
Beep test
**FLASHBACKS**
I'm getting flashbacks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As an American, I always heard it called P.E., not Phys. Ed.
Me too
PE stands for physical education
Julia Zajac I am aware of that. I'm just pointing out that I've heard PE more than phys ed.
lightworker221 me too
lightworker221 PE stands from physical education it’s the same thing
Ngl in my school PE was barely graded and we just did random shit for years 😂 and the uniform just deteriorated on the way through. Year 7- perfect uniform Year 11- sports leggings and a random dark t shirt
Emily Catherine Smith wish we could have nice leggings, at my school u can buy a pair for 30 quid and they r not even nice
In my old secondary school PE wasn’t graded at all!
Yeah, that kid who always had a letter from is "mum" saying he couldn't do P.E. got and "A", makes sense
We had a test at the end of Year 9 and was was it (unless you did it at GCSE)
Yeah it’s coz the education system changed a few years ago
I’m American
-We called it P.E
-We had it every other day.
-We had a new sport basically every month and learned all about it and played it.
-We had no uniforms.
-We had fitness tests just like Evan but were not graded on it.
-We were only graded on participation.
-All we did was play random sports and it was pretty boring lol
Granted whether you are British or American, every school does things differently.
Elizabeth Schuyler Hamilton that is similar to me but i am British, ps hamilton!! :)
We called it gym, we had it every other day, and we never got tested, we were only graded on participation.
We had it every day. 2 minutes to change. One big lap, then warm up. Uniform available, but if you didn’t wear it, you must wear specific colors. We had written tests every month. We stay outside until February. We have the Fun Run (mile run). Ps. It snowed last month, so just imagine February. AND he kept us out the moment the snow melted enough. Not even completely!
Elizabeth Schuyler Hamilton i’d rather be american
what did u weat if there wasn’t uniform for pe?
I’m American
too
-We called it P.E
or Gym
-We had it every single day for 55-70 minutes
-We played like 2 sports for 90% of the year and spent only a bit of time on other sports and never learned how to play it since the teachers just assume you already know, then we played it. (Example: 3 months volleyball, 2 weeks badminton, 1 weeks pickleball)
-We had no uniforms.
-Every quarter had fitness tests like pushups, jumprope, and crunches, and another test where our game form is graded (volleyball set, bump, etc) and you DO get graded on it, you need to get a higher number than last time.
-We were graded on readiness (dressing for PE) AND participation (you have to actually run around the track, play the games, etc)
-All we did was play random sports and do fitness circuits (run around track 10 minutes, then get into lines and run suicides, do pushups, and synchronized warmups, and if one person does it wrong we start again) and it sucked because i was not fit
HOLY CRAP THE BLEEP TEST = THE PACER TEST
The bleep test= the pacer test= the beep test
Savage marlin Lol wtf is the pacer test???
Hate the "fitness graham passer test". Ugh
@@heatherhadley3182 god I hate it
@Tuxedo Taxes I feel bad for you
Evan having never heard of triple jump broke my heart a little.
Yeah, especially as it is an Olympic event!! We had a British champion in every area (Jonathon Edwards).
To be fair I did it one sports day and I think it's pretty pointless
We have this thing called the cooper run where you have to run around a square as many times in 12 minutes. Then we would be compared with the averages across the country. Fun times
We had that too. I hated it.
Omds we had that too 😂😩
Jenny Hart we had that and the bleep test
Same it is living hell
I hated it
The bleep test of called the Pacer where I'm from (USA) and it is LIVING HELL. One year, I almost blacked out because my teacher kept pushing me and I didn't have my inhaler
Chloe Watson same!! I once almost passed out during the pacer test.
Chloe Watson i dont have to do it and i live in Louisiana
THE FITNESSGRAM PACER TEST IS A MULTISTAGE AEROBIC CAPACITY TEST THAT PROGRESSIVELY GET MORE DIFFICULT AS IT CONTINUES. THE 20 METER PACER TEST WILL BEGIN IN 30 SECONDS. LINE UP AT THE START. THE RUNNING SPEED STARTS SLOWLY, BUT GETS FASTER EACH MINUTE AFTER YOU HEAR THIS SIGNAL: (BEEP). A SINGLE LAP SHOULD BE COMPLETED EACH TIME YOU HEAR THIS SOUND: (DING). REMEMBER TO RUN IN A STRAIGHT LINE, AND RUN AS LONG AS POSSIBLE. THE SECOND TIME YOU FAIL TO COMPLETE A LAP BEFORE THE SOUND, YOUR TEST IS OVER. THE TEST WILL BEGIN ON THE WORD ‘START’. ON YOUR MARKS, GET READY, START.
(i hate the fact that ive heard this so many times ive memorized it)(also, ThE aNxIeTy I gEt JuSt FrOm ReAdInG tHiS iS uNrEaL)
We call it the shuttlerun in the netherlands
Chloe Watson Same! I got asthma attacks and would almost pass out nearly every time and every time I got a bad score and my teachers told me I wasn’t trying even though I was obviously in a lot of pain. Pacer test is hell.
"I wont lie to you" is the most welsh saying in English
I am an American and I do the bleep test but we call it the pacer.
same
ditto
Mackenzie Lupin +
I call it the hell test
Mackenzie Lupin I absolutely hate the pacer test. But the beginning of it is so famous at my school and it’s because of the vine edits that they make of it
My P.E experience:
Not being able to breathe in the girl's changing rooms because of all the spray
Losing earrings
"HAS ANYONE GOT ANY TAPE?!"
Girls literally refusing to do anything
Just dance
Ping Pong
REALLY competitive netball
Benchball (PEAK)
So much just dance especially in y11
Don't forget that the songs are always the same.
Did anyone do queenball?
yep im in y11 now and i don't do PE GCSE, so we just do benchball every time lol
Omg the girl's deodorant! I also couldn't breathe, it was horrible lol, but I've heard the boys have it bad too cos a lot of them spray disgusting smelling stuff.
We only did dance in first year, it was alright tbh. Rugby was a bit violent, but at least it wasn't mixed, unlike dodgeball, which we just played randomly sometimes. Most of the boys would be aggressively hurling balls at each other, while most of the girls (including me) would stand at the back and try not to get hit 😂.
My favourite things to play were table tennis, which sadly was a rare occurrence, and badminton. Hockey was good, but the experience would've been better if we didn't have to play it in the freezing cold and rain.
In Australia its called the beep test, not the bleep test
I'm from the UK and we had the beep test
In America it’s called the pacer test.
A fellow Australian who heard it being called the bleep test and went, hang on, we call it the beep test. My purpose for scrolling in the comments has been forfilled
Hello fellow Australian
I’m in Canada and we also call it a beep test.
I'm from California and we call it PE. We had the same thing of changing sports every month, but every beginning routine was the same. Granted my school was on the block system (four 90 minute periods that switched halfway through the year) so we had more time. We started with warmup stretches and exercises (jumping jacks, sit-ups etc) and then we'd have a 5 minute run. We'd alternate running in the gym or outside around the school. And you'd get points for how hard you tried (running vs jogging vs walking), but your time didn't matter. As long as you worked and improved over the course of the course, you could get an A. We had swimming, volleyball, ping pong, self defense, and ultimate frisbee. We learned all the rules and had in class tournaments. We only occasionally had sit-down physical health education. Like if it was raining or something. Changing in front of other people sucked, but there were several bathroom stalls in the locker room you could use if you weren't comfortable. I wasn't really a fan of PE, but I never had a negative experience with it or the teachers. I tried to do my best and I got an A.
Yeah I live in Washington, and it was basically the same for me, except it was a really big no-no to change in the bathroom stalls. We had shower areas that had curtains where you could change if you weren't comfortable.
That is literally the exact same as me (from Illinois) in every part, except we didn’t have a block system for periods, but the way pe worked was the same. we also have fitness testing 2-6 times a year, where we had the push up, pacer, flexibility, and sit up test. But you were graded on your growth, not ability to hit a certain amount of something
Juce me too, but I'm in Virginia
Juce I've noticed this is a very California thing becuase When I have 16 I moved form New York to San Francisco and network was at least for me exactly the same as Evan described but we called it Pe in sf and we had a block in SF.
I’m from Oregon and it’s practically the same, except we usually run more (like 10-15 minutes?) and even if it rained we just ran and played games inside, we had Health class to learn about actual heath. We also had a fitness test twice a semester where we ran the mile, did as many pushups/sit-ups we could in a minute, and did a flexibility test. I hate it mostly because I don’t have very many friends in my class and I don’t like most sports but like you I haven’t had a bad teacher experience and for us it’s only a year/2 semester class.
I AM HAVING THE PACER TEST NEXT CLASS. IRONIC.
The FitnessGram™ Pacer Test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continues. The 20 meter pacer test will begin in 30 seconds. Line up at the start.

I heard ‘The bleep test’ and my brain thought, “The pacer?”
Also, who else here remembers the pacer?
I hateeeee it 😔😭😭😭😭
There are a lot of differences between different places in the US because things that Evan explains about the East coast are sooo different from here in the midwest.
Loo yeah even like Massachusetts is so different than New Jersey
definitly in indiana we had "wellness" 3days of PE theory and then 3 days of actual activity
oh and we have 7 periods, called it bleep test and had PE uniforms on the activity day
Jumping on the late train but as I was in a military family, I moved a ton (east, south, west coast, midwest), and I can positively say every school is different even if it's only a different county.
Sarah Christina really? I'm also from Indiana and we called it the pacer test and we have 8 periods(you can kinda count study hall/lunch as 2 periods so technically 9) and we had track and feild day not wellness
The bleep test sounds like the pacer Test... at least that’s what we do in Texas 😂
Yeah! I live in GA, and we call it the pacer. I hated that thing. lol
In Minnesota it’s called the Pacer test too
I hate the bleep test
I live in Pennsylvania, and we do the pacer test 4 times year and I HATE IT. Also, I have gym once a week, so I don't know what Evan's talking about.
Utah and its called that to
The bleep test is like the fitness gram pacer test
Hutzell Gaming Yeah, same test different titles I guess.
The fitnessgran pacer test is a multi atage arobic capacity test, that progressively gets more difficult as it continues.
“the bell doesn’t dismiss you, I do”
- every teacher in the Italian school system ever, even though it’s them who go around the classrooms
yeah uhm and “floor hockey” is “floor ball” here 🤷🏻♀️
I had an asthma attack and a panic attack whilst doing the bleep test and now I have an excuse to never do it again haha 😂
Louise Fraser lucky
Louise Fraser I use my asthma as an excuse for not doing well 😂😂
Louise Fraser really? That happened to me and the teachers told me I wasn’t trying even though I literally couldn’t breathe.
Evan does all these British v America videos but listening to him talk about his experiences makes me want him to do American East Coast v West Coast videos bc I feel like my experiences growing up in California are much different from his.
Jaida Michelle same. I’m from Michigan and 90% of the time my experiences in school are completely different than his
i think also he should do a public vs. private school because i'm at a private school in NY and it's so different even though he grew up in new jersey
Same except I live in texas
Same I live in tennessee
That's a great suggestion. I live in Maryland and my county keeps changing all the school system rules an such. Recently they've been redistricting and discussing changing the times schools start. Right now they are thinking about pushing it back a couple of hours so we get out later, but that'll mess up my whole schedule. I find it interesting that different states do different things, but we still end up learning basically the exact same thing.
In Australia we call it the beep test
We call it the beep test in New Zealand, too!
same in canada!!
We call it grand pastor test in California
Beep test just sound wrong to me 😂😂 bleep, is the literal noise it made on the recording when we did it, it was audibly a "bleep" and not a "beep", I assumed that was the reason for the difference
Same here in Sweden
I remember my target in PE for five years was literally "to hit the ball"
That was my goal too, until I got put into special ed PE, that wasn't the name, but I don't know what it was called, and my goal was just to relax. I had to actively choose to run on the track or whatever to get a work out. It was awesome! I basically got a break from stress for 40 minutes.
The scariest part of that class was having to walk through the regular gym during their class to get to our meeting place. I remember very very vividly, one time I walked past and a ball just flew right in front of my face. I felt the wind, but I did not see it. Not fun.
Any other people from either the US or the UK feel like whatever the person representing your countries perspective is saying is nothing at all like your own experience?
Netball is great, it is a non contact sport but trust me it's feisty. 😂
Tasie Gill it is great but if someone ever hurt me or injured one of my teammates ill get incredibly feisty with that person
Bahahaha I agree! The amount of ankle injuries and name calling was full on!
i know! every game i come home with some new scratches and bruises
I had a tournament yesterday and the amount of people who fell over was crazy 😂
Tasie Gill hell yeah its great
I live in Utah and I have never heard people call it Phys ed. I always call it PE.
The bleep test sounds like the pacer. The pacer is legitimately terrible for me.
My public school had split up boys and girls PE and my charter school had coed PE
Emma Cole we have coed in a public school my charter school was segregated
In Australia, we call it the beep test. Just assumed it would be the same everywhere else 😂
We called it the shuttle run where I'm from, because you're like a badminton shuttle going back and forth
We call it the beep test in Canada too!
haha same when i first heard it i was like umm did she say beep test wrong? 😂
@@Jkirek_ a shuttle run and the bleep test are different things because the bleep test is a timed assessed thing which gets quicker and harder
@@sidney2738 in australia, the beep test is also a timed assessment that gets quicker and harder.
Lol I used to play netball (too lazy now) and seriously, you are wrong about it not being violent. The amount of times I broke my fingers catching the lightingspeed balls thrown to me or fell/knocked others too the ground at an overzealous attempt too intercept the ball. Although I'm too lazy to play any sport now, I think netball is a really good sport because it is literally impossible without teamwork - however good you are, you cannot get the ball anywhere on your own. But seriously, non contact is just the label.
Magda :/ I totally agree I get injured all the time
I play netball as well and I agree! The amount of times I’ve been knocked to the ground is insane! I once accidentally slapped someone in the face whilst intercepting the ball, tried to see if they were ok, tripped over their foot and whacked my head of the door 😂
Magda :/ I dislocated my knee when I was playing netball 😂
Thankyouuuuu took words out my mouth
Magda :/ it hurts so much though when you get hit on your nose by a netball
WHAT ABOUT THE FREAKING FITNESSGRAM PACER TEST IN AMERICA? It's the same thing as the bleep test, or is p similar.
mynameisntJJ it’s the same thing. It’s just called the bleep test over there. Equally as horrible to my understanding.
I’ve heard about the pacer test, but I’ve never actually done it 😂😂
I hated that 😂
But she said the bleep test is 20 meters but the pacer is 40
@@lilliharding5584 Really? In all the schools I went to, it was whatever the length of the gym was, so elementary school was a lot easier than middle/high school.
Loving these British vs American vids
Unicorn Power it's really interesting!
Ask your Scottish friend about Social Dancing/Ceilidh Dancing. We did that every year in the run up to Christmas instead of regular P.E.
rosieM91 Omg remember how awkward it was having to dance with the opposite gender in the lower years then by the time your a senior everyone had a bf (or gf) except you which is just depressing
@@katieann4388 Yes! oh the memories! luckily in my school by the time you were in 3rd/4th year most of the teachers were happy to let you dance with your mates if you wanted. So happy I never got pick to dance with the teacher lol!
Did this in primary for a couple years and you've reminded me we never actually did it in high school. Were told we'd be doing it and then it was never mentioned again.
Yeah us too! It was so awkward lol, they made the boys stand on one side of the hall and the girls on the other, and then either the boys or the girls would have to walk across the hall towards the opposite gender and pick a partner 😂.
There were some guys so afraid of putting their hand on your waist they would either hover it behind you, or have it so much higher up that they eventually reach your bra.
I heard some stories about creepy guys trying to unhook some girls' bras as well. Also our female teacher came into our changing room one time and said "girls, I was seeing buttcheeks" bc of the short stretchy material skirts most girls wore. For social dancing girls only changed their top half unless they wore trousers normally, in which cases they wore leggings. We also had a secret signal for when we could see a girl's buttcheeks 😂.
Also at some point they finally took away the stupid rule about having to have a partner of the opposite gender, which made it so much more fun as I could just dance with my friends, most of whom were female.
In my (UK) school you'd have an hour a week of PE which was compulsory. And then if you chose PE as a BTEC then you had 2 hours and there was a lot of written work. However if you don't do PE as a BTEC then you don't get graded in it!
Yeah I found that part so weird, Like if I don't choose it as a BTEC do I really have to do it? That's why I stayed in the changing room for register and hung out in the toilets until PE was over so I could merge with the crowd and go back and get changed (My school had more than one entrance to the yard that you had to cross the parking lot to get too from different parts of the building and one of them was conveniently near the toilets.) I got fed up at one point so I just stayed in my clothes behind this little wall thing so I could answer my name then walk off with my bag. Pretty sure they knew what I was doing at this point but just didn't care enough.
I was forced to do GCSE PE mandatory by the time exams came about we had completely stopped actually doing PE just theory constant theory wtf was the point in doing PE at that point
That’s how it is for me now
Hahahaha BTEC
Mine is so different in my school right now we are 40 minute gym every day and we start off with a 3-20 minute run and then we play a sport or do a workout.
When I had PE we have to wear unisex shorts and they weren’t flattering in any way!😂 There was a lot of extra fabric in the crotch area for the guys but because they were “unisex” we also had the extra fabric so when you sat down or moved it just looked odd lmao.
"Extra fabric in the crotch area for the guys" ? o.O
Is that a thing? I know our shorts have more fabric all around than "girls' shorts" so that they're longer and less form-fitting, but specifically in the crotch area? The only shorts I own that are like that are underwear trunks. Guys' shorts are just all around baggier (at least nowadays, not so much back in the 70s-80s though), not specifically in one part.
Sweeperboy I wish they were just baggier! Maybe then it wouldn’t have looked so weird, but unfortunately the shorts really did have extra fabric in that area so it was just uncomfortable for the girls.😂
We didn't have specific shorts we had to wear, but we did have a shirt we had to wear, we were also required to change our pants/shorts, but most people didn't
Still better than gym knickers!
I was in junior high in the 1970s. We could wear shorts and a tshirt of our choosing. Every Friday we had to take our PE clothes home to be washed. Each Monday the teacher would ask each of us if we were wearing clean clothes. If not, we would get a demerit which went against our grade. But we did track, dance (disco was the in thing), basketball, gymnastics and boys and girls were separated. One thing I hated was a requirement. I have no idea why but we did a semester of gym class, a quarter of health and a quarter of square dancing. We also did square dancing in elementary school.
She forgot to mention how we had Girl dodgeball in the UK/England
Nusrat Khan what’s girl dodgeball? I thought we were just allowed to play dodgeball because it lets us hurt each other without having to fill in paperwork haha
MrP4RR0TT My School was so fucking vicious. We had hard basketballs as well as the soft dodgeballs and it would hurt so much to get hit with the basketball, so if you didn’t like someone you just picked up a basketball and skelpt them in the face full force 😂
Rebecca White That’s exactly the point 😂 We used to do it in a freezing cold gym with kind of rubber balls so you could give someone a proper stinger. Sometimes we played with volleyballs too.
Then tennis is the same game except you get to power serve a tennis ball haha
My school is so sexist the girls don't do football, dodeball , cricket or rugby
We always played it normal
And when there wasn’t enough teachers they would mix top set and bottom set boys and girls
My school still use skorts so whenever we do pe I have to wear shorts with a skirt sewn to it
In America, specifically my state we have the bleep test but it's called the pacer test. I also have gym every other day but when you get into highschool you have in every day for two quarters
me to! the most triggering sound to me is
THE FITNESS GRAM PACER TEST WILL NOW BEGIN!
same for me.
HeyImSophie no don’t bring back memories
We have gym/PE every day and run the mile outside every week and if it’s raining or wet then we do the pacer test which we did today
IN BRITAIN WE STILL HAVE TO THIS DAY "GIRLS SPORTS" AND "BOYS SPORTS" EXACTLY AS KIM EXPLAINED WTF WHYYYYY
Edit: what i mean is that i think girls should be able to play the same sports as boys but not necessarily with them .. :)
moons n stars because do you really want to play rugby with boys/girls
I know from experience you will be murdered if u hit a tit. (My school did girls and boys contact rugby)
I tried to say that without it sounding wierd
And rounders is shit
I don’t have that as I go to a all girls
School
We protested that we wanted to do contact rugby and we were just told girls were too delicate.
When we protested and chanted further we got thrown in detention.
As someone who has had asthma for practically my whole life, I found the bleep test so unfair, like you physically can't run any longer because if you do your airway will swell up and you'll die, fail. Like wth I apologise for having a life-threatening condition that I can't help.
I just told my PE teacher and he let me sit on the side. I've had more than enough doctor papers to give him just in case, and I basically always had something wrong with me actually 😅
The bleep test sound like the pacer test. Which we do in PE. I live in the US
The FitnessGram™ Pacer Test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continues. The 20 meter pacer test will begin in 30 seconds. Line up at the start.

9 periods?? Bloody hell. I had 2-4 lessons a day. That’s SO MANY.
Emily Hough i guess it depends on what school you go to, at the private school i went to we had like 9-10 periods each 35 minutes long lol but the second school i went to we had 4 each an hour long
The Stacker first of all, I’m in England and I feel like any over 6 here is insane. Our lessons were 1.5 hours and doubles were 3 hours. 35 minutes is such a short time, and it seems like by the time you’re settled in and starting the work, the lesson is over. That’s an insane short time for a lesson.
Emily Hough yeah i'm in england too, i just went to a weird school i guess!! :P
(I hated that private school lmao)
Emily Hough ikr!! I have 5 a day not including clubs after school...but each was an hour long
The Stacker just thought I ought to make that clear hahah I’d hate it too if I was you 😂 it seems chaotic.
If he found out about cross country 😂😂
We have cross country in America in fact most universities have a cross country team ues it is a team
they call it track...
BeerHuntor Track and XC are different
Cross country is a killer it is horrible
We had to to 4 weeks of cross country 4 weeks! By the end of week one, the run would be impossible as it was so slippery and muddy. We had no showers either! Monday 1st period was the worst!
I'm in secondary school in the UK now and we still have "boy sports" and "girl sports" like so far I've done rugby, football (soccer for Americans) and basketball and the girls have done netball, yoga and volleyball. Oh and I also have a perverted male pe teacher that leaves the girls changing room door open and watches them change
Tell me that's not sexist.
I'm in secondary school too and PE is split up into girls and boys but they are trying to change that so now people who take GCSE PE are not split up and everyone else has a few lessons a year together to see if people will mind.
Also primary school did not split u up.
That's not sexist that's paedophilic and possibly illegal depending on the laws in your jurisdiction.
that is both sexist and pedophilic and why is that teacher not fired?
same my school is an all-girls school and literally the only sport we have is netball
Yeah, my school only JUST made a girls football club and we always get kicked off the field so the "proper" team can play
Each lesson was 1 hour so we had 5 lessons a day then 15 minuites break and 45 minuites lunch and we'd only have 4 hours of pe every 2 weeks. In pe we'd pick a sport to do every term as I'm now in year 10.
Louiseypie_ yee same
How about registration
Me too
Louiseypie_ that's similar to mine but I have 50 minute lessons and 30 minute tutor
Same
It’s not the same completely for all American schools. We call it PE not Phys Ed and we only have 7 periods in the day, not 9.
Also the “ Bleep test” is what we call the Pacer Test
in welsh we have 5 lessons a day
I think it’s different amount of periods for each school in mine it’s 8 periods
Netball is the bomb, you can't move BUT IT GETS VERY VIOLENT, the amount of sprained ankles and bruises you get is unbelievable. Plus, EVERYONE IN OUR SCHOOL (boys and girls) LOVED ROUNDERS. Also, remember all schools are different, I'm british and we have 2 periods of P.E. per week. In the first 3 years the PE groups are split boys and girls, girls do netball, rounders, tennis and swimming (plus a few other depending on the lesson) and boys did football, cricket, basketball, rugby, rounders, swimming (again, plus few more). Then in the last two years it was mixed and we did all sports. Personally I prefered the boy/girl spilt because as not a particularly sporty person, but willing to try, being with the boys made me feel judged and not good enough. Our skorts are super comfortable and looked great.
I have bad memories of net ball at secondary school. I managed to get a sprained ankle, sprained wrist, skin gouged out of my face and I was even knocked out cold with the actual ball by a girl who liked to bully me a lot of the time during PE
Bleep Test??? Pacer Test?? We actually call it the Beep Test in Australia
Invicta Films haha yeah it is so annoying I had to do it not to long ago I got the best in my class
In Germany it's called Piep Test, or at least we called it that
So true! I was wondering about why they were calling it the Bleep Test!
@@aniomi4096 ja so wird bzw wurde es bei mir auch genannt
Samething in New Zealand mate. How you doing, neighbour?
I had a gym teacher, who literally told us: "oh Girls can't get the highest mark possible, because they are not as good as boys." And we did have the classes together... and there was something like two different charts for grading boys and girls, like boys have to do this to get this mark and girls only have to do this... I always thought it was stupid to get marks at all...
It was very funny though when we had to do high jump in gym class with this teacher mentioned above, and a girl that specialised in this was better than everyone else in the class even all of the boys ;) he didn't know what to say ;) so much for all those gendered standarts... it's all about personal ability ;) I am from Germany btw
musicinga Yes those gendered scorings were really annoying. I had to run run 400metres more to get the same top grade as girls, it was really unfair
My PE teacher thinks boys are better than girls, so the guys have to carry us around and do the exercises way harder than us.
Yeah. The girls had to be more flexible and the guys had to be stronger, but we all had to run the mile the same
This is my school (British private school)
Each lesson is 45 min
7 periods
First break is at 10:45 and ends at 11:05
Lunch time starts at 12:35 ends at 1:35
We have form rooms
Registration is at 8:40 and lessons start at 9:15 ( assembly in between)
The school day ends at 4 and coaches leave at 4:15 but you can stay late to go to the library or if you have a club so then the coaches leave at 5:30
wth your school starts at 8:40? I mean you do end at 4 so nvm... my school starts at 8:15 and ends at 3:20... Wednesdays it ends at 2:18
@@penguin-tc1cx My school (British middle school) starts at 9:00 and ends at 15:30.
Im australian. We started school at 9am and finished at 3.30pm. We had registration then first period then break. After break was form assembly then another period. Then lunch then another period. Then break then last period. So 4 lessons and 3 breaks😁. Except on Wednesday when we had 2 lessons and the afternoon of sports after lunch 😁.
I'm in the US (public school) I have to wake up in 6:00 and we have 8 periods and they are like 45 min a class except for reading and writing those to are together so it makes us do an hour. Technically we have our own schedule so we have different period lunches, and then we leave at 2:10. School systems *sigh*
Lunches are like up to 40 or 50 mins of your time.
This I my school (also British private school)
Started school at 8:20am
Each lesson 55mins

Lunch break Is at 1:00pm and finishes at 2pm
Third break is at 4pm and finished 4:20pm
School finishes at 6pm
‘Girls push ups’ have their knees down because of the shape of a females hips which makes it the same level of comfort to a male doing it with their knees up - a little fun fact for y’all
Also, girls aren't completely weaker. Scientifically, boys have stronger arm muscles and girls have stronger leg muscles.
Dumb PE rules 101:
"Girls can't wear leggings or yoga pants because it'll distract the boys and Male teachers." However, we can wear shorts.
(Most people did anyway, though)
If a Male PE teacher gets distracted by a young girl, I don't think they should be a PE teacher tbh ._.
Same goes for if female teachers get distracted by if they boys have muscle - straight up weird. (although that was never a thing :/)
RT
that wasnt a issue when i was in high school which was like 10 years ago. Back then that was normal and girls wore way more distracting stuff tbh than leggings which werent really a thing back then.
Also fashion sucked back then lol.
The one time my overly extensive knowledge of sports gear comes in handy. Skirts were originally created so women could play sports with the advantages of shorts but still be presentable in society and stuck around for modesty when for when an athletic uniform used a skirt (cheer leading, field hockey, etc.).
Edit: Also, Netball was created by a misunderstanding of basketball by some girls schools and no one bothered to change it, became popular for girls when basketball had higher injury rates and just stuck around.
Netball is soooo violent i've knocked someone unconscious before. we say it non contact but there is defiantly a lot of contact. Also we play it in Australia too
Eliza Toohey and NZ it’s super popular too
Lmao netball can be brutal 😂 a girl tried to pull me back by grabbing my top so I couldn’t get the ball. I kept running and she was still holding onto my top so I ended up dragging her across the court as she nearly choked me. I still got the ball and we won that match though
Eliza Toohey I broke my nose playing a game that was like in a competition for the best teAm in the country
Yea I play netball for a team and even at school we’re vicious and we went to a Match and all came out in bruises and that was when we won. It’s lethal
I got knocked unconscious once playing netball, i woke up led on my schools tennis court floor 👍
Think in the UK P.E is more about just doing sports when I was at school we never got tested in PE and I didn't count towards your overall grade or anything and you got to choose modules like tennis, netball, trampolining, rock climbing, badminton, hockey, yoga, dance e.c.t
The only time girls and boys where separated was in contact sports but, there was a clear divide in what people would choose based on their gender (for example barely any girls did football because the boys took it seriously same with boys and rounders)
Olivia Jenkinson in my school we were assessed but it was only to seperate us into groups and I'd be put in the unisex group cause I was shit
Schools: we AREN'T SEXIST HOW DARE YOU SUGGEST THAT!
P. E:hOlD mY bEeRs...
I’m American in Virginia and for us in high school we’d have gym (phys. Ed) for a semester, but every two weeks we’d do “health” (9th grade) or drivers ed (10th grade) for two weeks. So two weeks of gym everyday, then two weeks of class room stuff and tests, then repeat. For a semester.
(Or if you did band, you’d have your gym/health on an every other day schedule for a full year which is hella confusing)
And the grades you got in health/drivers ed affected your PE grade, and vice versa. So even though I got straight A’s in the classroom section, my over all grade would a low B because I wasn’t great at gym
(because we got graded on performance, rather than effort.)
This also means, if you failed gym, but pasted Drivers ed, you’d still have to retake drivers ed (even if you already had your license)
I live in Virginia and this is accurate
You learnt to drive in school?? Is that normal in the US?
You learnt to drive in school?? Is that normal in the US?
Jem Parker We learn the written part in school. Stuff like turning on certain headlights and not drinking while driving. Then you get your permit and you have to do a certain amount of hours of you driving with a parent or someone older than 18. Then you do behind the wheel and pass your driving test. This is just Virginia tho, I don’t know how it is in other states but it should be pretty similar.
To be honest my school PE kit (I'm from England by the way) is pretty good. It's unisex, a navy shirt with a cool design on the shoulder and our school logo, navy shorts and knee length sport socks, also navy. In the winter you can wear tracksuit bottoms, no leggings though, and a fleece with the same design as the shirt.
Mine is navy as well
(🇬🇧) We have a royal blue and white top in 3 styles (long sleeves, short sleeve polo and fleece) and you can wear it with any black bottoms (including leggings), then when you get to year 11, you can wear any colour bottoms x
In Australia, we have 2 breaks, one around 10:30- 11:15 for a small snack and stuff and then lunch around 12:30-1:30
interesting! in germany we either had 5 minute or a 15 minute breaks. after the first lesson we had a 5 minute break, after the second we had a 15 minute after the third a 5 minute break again and so on.. after the sixth lesson however we never wanted more than a 5 minute break so we'd get home earlier!
I wish that happened at my school in the UK :( One break is at 11:00- 11:12 and lunch break at 1:15- 1:45
In America where I live we have exactly 8 minutes after every class (besides the last one, we can leave directly after the bell rings) which is about exactly the amount of time you need to get to your locker and the next class. We also have about a 30 minute lunch period (But my school is large enough where we have four different lunches to separate the kids. Mine is at 12:34am)
That's very similar to New Zealand schools
Yea same in my school in nz but the first break is only 20 minutes
1. Netball is so fun
2. Does roller hockey even exist?
3.if I did PE with the boys I would be so bad bc I would feel so insecure
I play netball for a team and I agree it's great
2. Yep. Apparently my university even has a team in the National Collegiate Roller Hockey Association.
In my school we have mixed pe classes in our form/homeroom classes

Are you from California?
We had a game similar to net ball. Except we combined it with freeze tag and dodge ball. If u got hit u had to freeze and could only pivit until someone or even you get the person who got you out out or someone tags you back in.
@@samuelcolt1505 Whats net ball? Is that a western US thing?
Subscriber idk but we play it in wales. It’s a ‘girls sport’. Basically basketball except you can’t move with the ball. You play it in winter, in skorts, and it’s torture.
Same. East coast must do things differently than New Jersey
Australia is the weird middle ground lol
Festive Llama and canada
I was going to say how my Australian experience was so similar to the Welsh one. Except that we call it the beep test, and while PE was split into separate boys and girls classes, it was mostly so we could have more open sex ed discussions in Health class, which was part of the same subject as the PE classes. Maybe we also did different sports to the boys, I don't remember...
India too
our teacher made us wait for the next beep to continue running and its 50 meters not 20 at my school
Yesssss
I hate our skorts, they tell us not to roll up our skirts and then they make us wear skorts that barely cover our bums. (The tracksuit bottoms that they offer are the most hideous things ever existed)
Emily Harding Some people in my Year roll up their skorts and then there’s me and my friends trying to pull them down as far as we can
We have school leggings which were literally normal leggings but stitched with red and blue thread and triple the price
At my school we don't have skorts
In Australia we call it a ‘beep’ test. Never heard it called ‘blip’
Oh and Netball is a far bigger sport in Australia the basketball in both participation and professional league. Though it is mostly a ‘womens’ sport
Bleep
JUST TO BE CLEAR
ice (hockey): the one on ice????
floorball/salibandy (the latter may just be a finnish name but i'm not sure): the one where you run
rollerblade-hockey??: death?
Ice hockey is on ice
Floorball is similar to ice hockey, but on normal floor
Roller hockey sounds like floorball on roller skates.
Field hockey (just called hockey in the U.K.! Has significantly different rules
We only do floor hockey 😂 but in England we just call it hockey
Kaitlyn Guy yes field hockey is completly different to ice hockey and it is much faster. running downt that pitch back and forth is tiring also someone commits an offence like every 2 seconds
Patty Goodey floor hockey isnt the same as field hockey
I went to school in the US.... we had blocks so 90 min every other day for a semester freshman and sophomore year. We didn't have a uniform we just had to wear gym pants or shorts and a shirt with proper shoes.
We did the bleep test in middle school when the teachers were lazy. If you made it to the last 10 you could sit out the next group. There were usually 3 classes running together.
In PE (I live in the UK) we were never really properly graded, we just got a random grade based on "you actually did it" because most people just sat in the field and did absolutely nothing. We also never had to go and do PE during our GCSE years if we had revision to do. So I definitely took advantage of that and never did PE again.
AllTimeBubble :3 I love your username haha :) as for PE in GCSE years, it was compulsory for us BUT I didn't have to do it bc I moved to community tuition for my GCSE years bc I have social anxiety. In community tuition, we could only do English and Maths. While it sucked that I had to do that, not having to do PE was a wonderful, wonderful benefit. 😂 I seriously despised PE so much, especially since I used to get picked on badly and the changing rooms did not help.
xotbirdox haha thanks! I hated PE soooo much
xotbirdox also, amazing profile picture, Jack is loving his drink :D
If you picked GCSE PE you had PE with the boys
That’s how it was at my school
It was the easiest GCSE.
@@serancoscer2064 No the written exam is 60% and its really hard at GCSE lol, when did u take yours?
Same
At GCSE we had theory with the guys but practical was still separate because we still had different sports most of the time
Same
Lockers in the changing room. Pahahaha no. Just leave your stuff unattended, if it gets stolen it’s just your own fault. Literally British schools to a t. So many memories. Bad memories.
Becca Cole Not really related to PE but in my school, the sixth formers had lockers (for everything) but no one else did and I thought that was so unfair
In my secondary school, everyone from yr7 - yr11 had lockers....
“bleep test” you mean, the pacer test??
“The FitnessGram Pacer Test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continies. The 20 meter pacer test will begin in 30 seconds. Line up at the start. The running speed starts slowly, but gets faster each minute after you hear this signal [beeb] A single lap should be completed each time you hear this sound. [ding] Remember to run in a straight line, and run as long as possible. The test will begin on the word start. On your mark, get ready, start.
I’m from the uk and I love that we have gender separate classes cause our school started that because when we got older the girls would stop trying in case they got embarrassed by the boys being there so now that we are separate we all try really hard and enjoy it
Here in Canada (Quebec more specifically), we call "floor hockey" "cosom hockey" or "boot hockey".
Cosom includes a ball. Boot hockey usually refers to playing hockey on ice without skates.
I'm from Indiana. I call it P.E. In my public school (granted this was in Elementary School and I'm homeschooled now) I didn't have a gym uniform at that point. Also they did switch sports every now and then (not every month) Wtf is a bleep test I called it Fitness Gram Pacer Test. If you want to know what that is look it up.

Videogamergirl93 We have the exact same recording in Maryland! That's so cool. We have two P.E. teachers and about 50 kids in the gym at once, but I only like one of the teachers. Btw, I visited Indiana before and the people there are very nice.😊
Cool, not everyone in Indiana are nice just to let you know.
I live in NY and when the bell rings we all just leave lol
yeah I live in Wales and go to a welsh school so if we did that we get the same thing Kim said but in welsh and we could get detention
Same in Somerset
I live in MN and some teachers let us leave when the bell rings, but some make us wait for them to dismiss us
I live in philly. Literally no one cares. People only stay if it’s a teacher like our science teacher Dr. Scott who everyone is low key afraid of.
I'm from Ohio. I'm not sure how common it is, or if my school is just weird, but we don't have to take PE as long as we complete two seasons of any sport. My school counted marching band as a sport, so I never had to take PE in high school
Camryn Craig Lucky! Did loads of people still do PE or were the classes really small because of it?
My school (New York High School) was thinking about letting people who did sports (sadly not marching band that doesn't start until April for me) but they ended up not doing that.
I'm not sure that I know of anyone who has actually taken PE, so I'm gonna say the classes are pretty small. Compared to the size of the school, not many people do sports, but PE is also offered online over the summer. I know of a few people who did that so they didn't have to do it during the school year.
That sucks. I'm totally an advocate for it. My school just recently stopped counting color guard for PE credit, yet our front ensemble, who doesn't march at all, still gets credit. It doesn't make any sense to me.
Dang, same here and from Ohio as well. We do have to take it in middle and under, though.
I remember having to go out every time in PE even when there was massive heavy rain with a storm going ahead of us
In Canada we call it the beep test
Also
JUST HOCKEY IS ICE
THE DEFAULT IS ICE can you tell I'm Canadian
Edit: Even so I like road hockey better lolol but notice how I call it ROAD HOCKEY rather than HOCKEY
I'm a British Hockey player. It's so annoying that I have to specify it's "ice hockey" to everyone, since field hockey is the popular version here.
I also had to make the same comment about hockey. #Canadianproblems
I, also bring a Canadian from a “hockey family”, am not okay that people don’t know that hockey is meant to be on ice, with skates! THATS THE “DEFAULT HOCKEY”.
Sorry about that eh, didn’t mean to get annoyed there.
James Kilgour I'm actually crying for you
I THINK YOU'LL FIND THAT HOCKEY ON THE FIELD OR TARMAC IN TRAINERS WAS AROUND A LING TIME BEFORE ICE HOCKEY EXISTED. It's been played in Britain since the mid 18th (1700s) century whereas ice hockey was first played in 1875 BOOM.
personally, I like not having to do pe with the boys because I care a lot less when I fail at a push up and face plant the ground
imagine a cute person that you are in to watches you frail around, coved in sweat on a muddy field, actually dying from how un fit you are
I HATED THAT i always had a crush on a boy in my pe class and was so unfit that it was embarrassing! then again i usually also had a crush on a girl in my pe class so i was always screwed
NoHomoHowell Who? Same
To be honest I’m British and I think that I prefer the fact that America don’t have uniforms since I want to wear band t-shirts to school
Emo Trash Sadly, some schools still do here. I'm lucky enough to go to a small school with no uniforms. I'm from the U.S.
Maya Kylie but those are mostly private schools
tbh i prefer uniform
@@turtlegangsta2553 In the US you can make your own uniform (wear any cloths you want)

Let me talk you through private school pe/games : (all girls school for me)
•pe once a week
•double games every other week
•double fitness every other week
•dance once a fortnight
We had a full pe kit and we were required to have a hockey stick hockey socks, shin pads and mouth guards. We also had to have tennis rackets. We had polo tops, hoodies tracksuit bottoms, baggy shorts, tight shorts , skorts. No jewellery allowed and hair tied up.
We played:
Rounders, tennis , hockey , football, cricket, badminton, fitness (we had a gym, netball, basketball, gymnastics, and end of year was athletics (track, highjump, throwing shotputs/discuss, hurdles etc)
Depending the term it depends on what you did so summer was rounders/tennis in double games and in pe it was fitness/ gymnastics.
In autumn it would be football/ badminton in pe lessons and in double games netball/ hockey
Netball and hockey were the most , all the sports were also after school clubs/ lunch Time clubs.
As for tests we only have physical tests in like April/may and it would be 100meters timed and 800meters timed and then 3 miles around the park timed.
In double fitness lessons one hour would be physically and the other would be learning facts and about our bodies and sports as well as mental health
Sometimes as a treat we would be allowed to play bench ball or dodge ball.
That’s all thanks byeeee
You should seriously do one of these but instead of British vs American, do it comparing the parts of the US because my experiences were similar to British but I live on the west coast of the US
In Scotland we call it P.E too- it stands for Physical Education just like in America and in my school we have it twice a week. Periods last 50 mins and we have either six or seven periods, depending on the day ( hours were either 8:40 - 3:00 or 8:40 - 3:50)
I’m in Scotland too but our days are either 8:40 - 3:20 and 8:40 - 2:30.
Ours were 8:50-3:40 from Monday to Thursday and 8:50-12:55 on a Friday
P.E. is the same in England too 😂 and it's short for physical education here too.
We do 8:50-3:45 Tuesday Monday and 8:50-2:55 the rest, we can also take PE meaning u get 5 periods a week
Shona McGibbon on Mondays,Tuesday's and Friday's we end at 3. On Thursdays and Fridays it's 3:50
I went to high school in California and had 6 periods in high school. Lunch was between 4th and 5th period. Every class was 50 minutes long. And we only needed 2 years of PE. Usually taken in 9th and 10th grade. And PE was every day and we had fitness journals where we document our stats after a warm up. We’d warm up and then we would play a sport like volleyball, flag football, softball, soccer, field hockey, badminton, lacrosse, basketball, swimming. It was also coed and we had locker rooms for PE. But no general lockers in the hall, we had to carry out stuff all day lol
netball isnt as sweet as that swear to god people were breaking their fingers and pushing each other over left right and centre
Tbf my netball team is always being pulled up for contact haha 😂
@@megan.5139 same lmao especially if there are 2 best friends playing against each other, that gets scary
@@hannah-ms5ru there's this private school we play against when playing with school and i stg its bruTAL
Yeah, at one of my games girls in my team got shoved violently into the wall, one girl got scratched on the cheek by someone’s nails. And many people get slapped all the time
I went to a boys school with an adjacent girls school. The girls did netball some of the time. For the boys there was one game once a year where the boys sixth form played the girls, brute force vs skill.
Still not as violent as the annual boys vs masters football ("scoccer") match.
Nah mate netball is one of the best sports. Watch the super league and Olympic netball it’s a great. I’ve been playing competitive netball for a club in my town for 5 years.
Completely agree
Yeah
same I play for my county and I love it
My experience is quite different, in 6th and 7th grade I took PE and in 8th grade I took athletics, which is designed just for athletes. In PE we would play games and sports, but just the basics. It was also really easy, for example one day all we would have to do was run 6 laps around the big track. Now in athletics we do alot of sport related training. Like right now since track and basketball season is starting, the girls who are planning on playing these sports are training and having tryouts. But those who are off-season are just gonna train in the sport that they were playing, either volleyball or cross country. Since I am gonna run track, my exercise consists of lots of running, endurance, strength, and stamina training.
In Australia it is called the beep test. Also we just had to wear the everyday uniform for pe.
i was 20 minutes late once to class cuz my German teacher didnt believe us that the bell went
I was late to a class once because I got locked outside after gym class, and then found out that my binder (we don’t carry our backpacks, we just carried our individual binders/books) was taken, so I showed up to English class 15 minutes late, without any materials, out of breath and panicked
German teachers were the best dick heads but they really nice sometimes
The bleep test is literally the pacer test
Also I go to school in the UK and there is these girl sports and boy sports so there's everything that was said but also in our school the boys do football and boxing and tackle rugby whereas the girls do gymnastics, dance, zumba and yoga (there is a serious sexist split in the UK where sports are concerned)
Emily Coxon You're right! I'm in Year 13 now so there's no compulsory PE anymore (I genuinely miss it!) But I remember being forced to do dance and absolutely hating it, whilst the boys got to continue playing football or rugby etc. I do love netball however, and that was always my favourite! But being made to do dance and gymnastics whilst the boys got to run around playing games was a bit crap. I understand why boys and girls are split, however when I did GCSE PE and we were mixed I found it so much more fun! Nice to be in a class of people who all want to participate rather than 3/4 of the class complaining and sitting out😂
My school is really sexist for years 7 to 9 but now I'm in yr10 we choose what we do (my last set was contact rugby lesson 1 and handball lesson 2, now I'm doing football and volleyball). The only thing I can say is that both sexes do football equally at my school :)
I'm in the UK and both girls and boys did PE together... And we had to do 3 hours per week euuuuurgh
omg yeah that's one thing that is stupid in the UK - making girls do dance and yoga shit. i hated it.
I left school nearly 25 years ago and it was the same then in the UK. At my school, for "Games" lessons the boys did football in Winter, cricket in Summer. Girls did (field) hockey in Winter, and tennis in Summer. We also did "P.E." which was basically athletics (mainly running) for boys, and gymnastics for girls.
Never heard of the bleep test, but it sounds horrible. I would have failed badly at it, because I have an anaemic condition (undiagnosed until recently, so I wouldn't have had a doctor's note for it back then).
I think the PE system in the UK has changed a lot since the girl (can’t remember her name pls help) cause from year 7 to year 9/10 you have it twice a week but once you start your GCSEs you only have it once a week unless you take GCSE PE where you still only have 1 actual physical lesson the others were just learning about health etc but until that point you don’t learn about health and fitness you do that in Food and PD. But if you don’t take GCSE PE you choose an activity every term (a semester I think for Americans) for example we recently got games as an activity but no one really cares if you don’t take GCSE PE. Also until GCSE it’s split then after you are with the boys, and with Basketball there was an awkward year before starting GCSEs where we played basketball
Anya Berry アンヤ べリ I think it differs from school to school because we had PE twice a week from year 7 to 11 even if you didn't take GCSE PE
Ah okay
in London we have PE once a week from year 7-11 lol
I'm in year 10 and we have week a with 3 PE lessons and week b with 1 PE lesson
In year 12 I'm having one a week but it's been 2 in the last five years
