(School of Physical Education,Shanghai Normal University,Shanghai 200234,China) Abstract: By means of investigation and research, the author analyzed problems existing in the physical education and fitness curriculum for elementary and middle schools in Shanghai with the use of the outlines of Opinions on Boosting Physical Education for Teenagers and Enhancing Physical Fitness of Teenagers issued by Central Com-mittee of the Communist Party of China and State Council, and pointed out the following problems still existing in the implementation of the physical education and fitness curriculum: there is a lack of profound understanding of the objective contents of the physical education and fitness curriculum and their interrelations; such a core objective as “physical development” is not highlighted; there is a lack of “grand curriculum view” type understanding of the physical education and fitness curriculum, so it difficult to ensure the implementation of the stipulation that students do exercises for an hour everyday; there is a lack of physical exercise factors in class teaching, therefore the effect of physical exercising by students in class teaching is affected. The author put forward the following suggestions: the objectives of the physical education and fitness curriculum should be correctly understood, and such views as the “grand curriculum view” on the physical education and fitness curriculum should be formed; it should be em-phasized that student’s physical exercise should be highly valued and their exercise load should be rationally ar-ranged in the physical education and fitness curriculum; it should be advocated that students should be strictly disci-plined, and their hard working spirit should be cultivated, and the construction of physical education teacher team should be strengthened.
