EDUCATIONAL STANDARDS IN HEALTH EDUCATION IN THE CZECH REPUBLIC
Abstract
Health education has been included in the system of elementary education of the Czech Republic since the development of the curricular document entitled Framework educational programme for elementary education (education has followed this document since 1 September 2007). In order to ensure uniform quality of education for all pupils, the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports of the Czech Republic started to develop Educational standards. The standards were developed according to the results of international research studies TIMSS and PISA, which pointed to worsening results of pupils in the Czech Republic. The development of the standards was also recommended by the 2012 OECD Report on results assessment. The standards should be formulated at a minimum level in compliance with the Framework educational programme for elementary education, version 2013. At present, detailed methodology is being developed for the published Educational standards of Health education. The objective of the present communication is to interpret the results of the following research study: “Research of the level of curriculum adopted by elementary school pupils in ]Health education”, which is a part of the following Student grant competition project at Palacky University, Olomouc: Perception of subjective impact of health disability/presence of chronic disease and concept of health awareness and literacy (IGA\_PdF\_2015\_003). The main objective is to perform a broad research as to whether the Educational standards correspond with the minimum level (formulated indicators and illustrative tasks should be met by 80\% of ninth graders in elementary schools in the Czech Republic). During the first research stage we obtained results from 111 of pupils in grade nine in elementary schools in the Czech Republic.
