NSW PDHPE Stage 5 (Year 10) - lifelong health and participation; performance analysis and program design; community health action - expressed in Dux teaching language.
Dux tracks each dot point separately, so “I did Personal Development, Health and PE” becomes a list of specific things you can already do and specific things you have never been asked. Open a module for all of its dot points, written out.
What keeps people active and well across a lifetime, and what the evidence says about the habits that last.
Using data and observation to improve performance, and designing a program that survives contact with a real season.
Turning health knowledge into action: identifying a need, planning a response and measuring whether it worked.
A Personal Development, Health and PE paper is not one question type repeated. Each command word asks for a different shape of answer, and each is worth a different number of marks.
| Command word | Question type | Marks |
|---|---|---|
| analyse | Short answer | 3–5 |
| describe | Short answer | 2–3 |
| evaluate | Extended response | 4–6 |
| explain | Short answer | 3–4 |
| identify | Multiple choice | 1 |
| predict | Multiple choice | 1 |
Year 10 Assessment Task Shape — 50 marks, 75 minutes. Practice papers in Dux are assembled to this shape rather than invented, so the timing is training too.
Diagnostic first, then questions written in the shape this course uses. Written answers come back marked against the bands, not just scored.
