Summary/Abstract: After the 1973 Party Decision on physical education in schools, the physical education system in Romania underwent significant changes, with an emphasis on promoting health and regular physical activity among students. The party decision of 1973 had as its main purpose the promotion of physical activity and sports among students as an integral part of their education. This document emphasized the importance of physical education in the formation of a healthy individual and encouraged its integration into the school curriculum. The physical education lesson was reinforced as an essential part of the school curriculum. Pupils had regular physical education lessons in schools with a focus on developing physical skills, team spirit and promoting an active and healthy lifestyle. Physical education was seen as a way to attract students to different sports activities and to promote talent and interest in sports. Schools have encouraged students to participate in school, inter-school and national sports competitions so that they discover and develop their sports skills. School camps were another opportunity to promote physical activity and sports. During the camps, sports activities were organized to provide students with a variety of outdoor experiences and to encourage social interaction and team spirit.
