Linyi prioritizes students' health by implementing Two-hour daily sports activities

Linyi fully enforces the requirement of no less than two hours of comprehensive sports activities for primary and secondary school students each day to uphold the education concept of "health first".

The city has established a sound 1+2+N sports activity system. It ensures full implementation of physical education classes and prohibits unauthorized occupation of class hours. Standard long breaks are arranged in the morning and afternoon respectively, with indoor exercises as alternatives in bad weather. Various after-school sports activities also supplement daily exercise time to meet the standard.

To address shortages of venues and teachers, authorities adopt staggered activities, divided-area exercises and joint staffing models. Diversified and hierarchical sports activities including martial arts, Baduanjin and school-based calisthenics are widely promoted.

At present, regular sports activities have yielded remarkable results, improving students' physical fitness and curbing the rising myopia rate. Going forward, Linyi will realize full coverage of daily PE classes, upgrade long break activities, strengthen home-school collaboration and improve supporting mechanisms to advance sports education in the long run.
