However, with the digitized era and adolescents’ lifestyle changes, there has been a decrease in physical activity among students that could likely have an impact on their learning outcome in physical education.

Physical activity data were collected from Physical Activity Questionnaire for Adolescents (PAQ-A), and physical education learning outcome data included the administrative documentation of odd-semester report card scores. Data was analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics (normality tests, linearity tests and correlation analysis). The findings indicated that the physical activity levels of students were mostly in the 41-80th percentiles, and their learning outcomes achieved for physical education fell within the fair level for low-income populations.
