ISC Class 12 Physical Education Syllabus 2026 | Free PDF Download

Thursday, March 20, 2025

ISC Class 12 syllabus is a detailed set of content that covers all the topics taught in previous classes in a deeper way, which also makes it more extensive and tougher to cover for some students. The first step for any student to prepare for ISC Board exams is to have a clear understanding of the syllabus.

Physical Education is one of the most important subjects students tend to ignore. We need to understand that sports are also as important as studies and neither of the two can be neglected. Physical Education subjects give diverse knowledge on various topics related to health, mind, and body which are significant to grasp for the students in order to excel in their lives.

The ISC Class 12 Physical Education Syllabus for 2025-2026 focuses on theoretical knowledge and practical skills in fitness, sports, and health.
