Abstract
The article examines the organisational and pedagogical factors that contribute to improving the quality of physical education lessons in secondary schools. The study aimed to identify and analyse the conditions that enhance the effectiveness of physical education lessons. The research was conducted during the 2019-2020 and 2020-2021 academic years at Secondary School No. 61 in Karaganda, Kazakhstan, and involved students in Grades 9–11, physical education teachers, parents, and school administrators. Research methods included analysis of scientific and methodological literature, questionnaires, interviews, pedagogical observation, and analysis of students’ written reflections. The findings indicate that the quality of physical education lessons depends on a combination of organisational, content-related, and methodological factors that shape students’ attitudes towards the subject and their participation in physical and sport activities. The results also show that the integration of modern educational technologies, interactive teaching methods, and diverse forms of motor activity is viewed by educational stakeholders as a promising approach to improving school physical education. The findings may be used to develop programmes and organisational measures aimed at enhancing the quality of physical education lessons in secondary schools.
