Abstract

Descriptive study in which a written questionnaire of closed answers is applied to a group survey of demoscopic character. The survey is at the same time individual and standardized, and is developed in the presence of a pollster. Using the quantitative method, the established observational categories are studied to explore the pupil’s concept on the scholastic Physical Education, specially those students of 2nd and 3rd cycles of Primary Education. This observational categories are structured in seven variables which, distinguishing between the two last cycles that integrate Primary Education, gender, educational establishment, and their location. After the analysis of the results, it has been verified that the contents of Physical Education, their empathy with the teaching staff and the freedom they experienced during lessons together with the influence of mass media, are the main factors which cause this subject to be the most preferred above the rest. Whereas sport facilities, obtained qualifications and schedule are not significant in their likes.
