- Abstract
The purpose of this study was to assess Primary Education Physical Education (PE) teachers' perspectives of the process of incorporating the Basic Competences (BBCC) into the curriculum of the Principality of Asturias. A total of 151 PE teachers (46.6% of the whole population) answered an ad hoc questionnaire of 12 items using a 6-point Likert scale. The results showed a full incorporation of the CCBB into the subject's program. However, the degree of development in practice turned out to be much lower. Being female, young, and having a high-level and specific training emerged as differentiating factors. Cross-cutting skills were valued more than those related to the specific curricular areas. The depth of change undertaken by teachers and the required one are discussed. Finally, implications to address specific training are also introduced.
