Passport for Life supports the awareness, assessment, development and advancement of physical
literacy among students and teachers. The four components of physical literacy that are assessed in
Passport for Life are Active Participation, Living Skills, Fitness Skills and Movement Skills. Passport for Life combines student responses to online questionnaires with student data resulting from
their participation in fitness and movement skill tasks that teachers administer and observe.
Based on the results of the physical literacy assessments, the Passport for Life website generates a
Student Passport and a Class Passport. These passports highlight gaps in students’ physical literacy
levels and support teachers in adapting their programming and instruction to provide targeted lessons
that are relevant at both the class and student- levels. The passport results are user-friendly for
teachers, parents and students and offer these target groups a platform to engage in meaningful
conversation about student physical literacy assessment outcomes to support future improvements.
