Recently, a heavyweight report from the British newspaper The Daily Telegraph on the 13th, like a giant rock thrown into a lake of public opinion, stirred up a thousand waves. The report directly points out that physical education in public schools in the UK is deeply mired in crisis, and the long-term neglect of sports by schools and management departments has laid a highly destructive hidden danger for the obesity and mental health of minors in the UK, which may lead to catastrophic consequences.
A series of authoritative data, like a cold portrayal of reality, is heart wrenching. In the UK, the majority of children fail to meet the standards set by the UK healthcare sector for physical activity and sports. Specifically, up to 52.2% of children have an average daily activity time of less than 60 minutes, and 29.6% of children have an activity level of less than 30 minutes per day; Most children in the critical growth stage of 14-16 years old fail to achieve their weekly 2-hour exercise goal; More than half of the students in the 16-18 age group do not participate in school organized sports activities at all. The investigation by Sport England also revealed a worrying phenomenon: children aged 8-13 have a long-term low enthusiasm for sports activities, and their sense of happiness and confidence also significantly decline. Upon closer examination of the underlying reasons, this group's childhood coincided with the pandemic, leading them to rely more on digital interactions on the internet during their growth process, while reducing physical communication in the real world.
Since the 2012 London Olympics, the physical education situation in public schools in the UK has been deteriorating. The number of physical education classes per year has sharply decreased by 12%, and the number of physical education teachers has also decreased by 7%. Moreover, the shortage of school buses for transporting students and insufficient power supply for sports hall lighting have directly led to the cancellation of many campus competitions that could have stimulated students' enthusiasm for sports due to the shortcomings of these hardware facilities.
Alison Oliver, CEO of the British charity Youth Sports Trust, pointed out sharply that "various signs indicate a close internal connection between the health crisis faced by children in our country and the severe lack of sports activities." This incident is undoubtedly a resounding alarm, sounding a heavy bell on the path of children's sports education and healthy development in the UK. All sectors of British society are also closely monitoring what effective measures will be taken in the future to reverse this unfavorable situation and improve children's sports and health conditions. Let's wait and see.
