Data on the provision of physical education in schools has been recorded in the Schools Healthy Living Survey Statistics Report since 2012.
The most recent Schools Healthy Living Survey Statistics Report was published on the Scottish Government’s website on 5 September 2023 and this is available through the following web link: Data and Methodology - School Healthy Living Survey: school meal uptake and PE provision statistics 2023 - gov.scot (www.gov.scot) .
Information about schools meeting physical education targets is contained on Table 18 of the supplementary statistics spreadsheet.
