The competent ministry has opened a public discussion on the White Paper on Education in the Republic of Slovenia. Its goal is to ensure a systematic expert consideration of the structure and functioning of the Slovenian education system as well as finding solutions that will ensure the high-quality of the education system in the future. It is an important time to incorporate physical education more appropriately into the education system. In the period since the last reform of the school system, the lifestyle of children and their parents has radically changed and, consequently, also the importance of physical education in the acquiring of quality knowledge, development of personality and active involvement in society. More recent international political documents have already been warning about the special role of physical education that should also be incorporated into the national education strategy. To contribute to the discussion on the White Paper, we as sports professionals therefore present some expert propositions on how to appropriately incorporate physical education into the education system, which are underpinned by international and Slovenian scientific findings about the benefits of physical education and other school sports activities.
