Milchrist disagreed and argued that physical education should survive, but that radical reform is required. Klienman predicted the just demise of a subject that is, as he saw it, elitist, scientised and obsessed with technical minutiae. Along with Klienman, several prominent researchers in the USA had been predicting the demise of secondary school physical education from at least the early 1980s (Dodds and Locke, 1984; Siedentop, 1981). They were somewhat dismayed to have to report by the late 1990s that the same flawed programmes remained in place despite clear evidence that they were failing to meet their own aspirations to produce skilful, lifelong participants in physical activity (Siedentop and Locke, 1997).
Siedentop, in the company of his colleagues O’Sullivan and Tannehill, concluded in similar fashion to Locke that physical education’s resistance to all efforts to reform its failing practices was due to its deep institutionalisation in schools. High school physical education is trapped in what might be described as the dysfunctional ‘family’ of the American high school. … Dysfunctionality is most often a two-way street in the sense that there is a codependence, in this case between the teacher and the institution.
Laker’s future physical education has three ‘progressive phases’, roughly corresponding to the early, middle and later years of schooling and matching foundation, development and advanced levels of learning. In the first phase the emphasis is on skill development, dance, and self and other responsibilities; in the second, on Sport Education, healthrelated exercise, and outdoor pursuits; and in the last, recreational physical activities in which choice would feature prominently, social critique of the body and an emphasis on extended social responsibility.
