Physical Education Curriculum Analysis Tool (PECAT)

The Physical Education Curriculum Analysis Tool (PECAT) is a resource developed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to help schools and educators assess their physical education programs. It provides guidance to evaluate the quality and effectiveness of their curriculum, ensuring it meets national standards for physical activity and health education. By using PECAT, educators can identify strengths and weaknesses in their programs, make informed improvements, and promote lifelong physical activity among students, contributing to their overall health and well-being. It serves as a practical framework for enhancing physical education in schools.
