Abstract
In recent years a neo-liberal sport education paradigm has sought to refurbish traditional physical
education frameworks and operative rules. This paper subjects the sport education model to critical scrutiny and
deconstruction. It is argued that this model deserves attention because it places the ethics and logic of secondary school
physical education on shifting sands. More importantly, it has hegemonic implications for physical education praxis
in African schools.
