Physical Education and Wellbeing Physical Education is a main pillar of the junior cycle Wellbeing programme. The six indicators of wellbeing – Active, Responsible, Connected, Resilient, Respected and Aware - describe what is important for young people and their wellbeing. The Physical Education specification was designed to contribute directly to the indicators of wellbeing in junior cycle.
