Abstract

The present work presents reflections about the mobilizing issue of this journal, namely: "how is it possible to find or construct foundations to justify Physical Education in the [high school] curriculum today?". In order to do so, we present a discussion about the main aspects of "New" High School, emphasizing the conceptions of knowledge, curriculum, youth and the rupture of the articulation between the dimensions of human formation (Science, Culture, Work and Technology) as they are treat in previous Legislation. Then, we return to the debate about the legitimacy of Physical Education in school, taking as reference, among other productions, the National Curricular Guidelines of Secondary Education published in 2006. Finally, we intend to present coping strategies of the current context, as well as reflect on the possibility of constructing other forms of legitimation of the presence and permanence of Physical Education in High School.
