The aim for this essay is to examine the knowledge among parents to students, from grade 9 of upper level lower secondary school, about what is assessed in the school subject physical education. This is done by distributing a postal questionnaire to 89 parents. 42 of them chose to take part in the survey and the results show that parents are having different opinions about assessment and what the base is for assessment in the school subject physical education. When looking at the result of the study from a gender perspective it shows that the women rate their knowledge about the base for assessment higher than the men. The parents were also asked to rank what they think is the most essential part when it comes to assessment. The result shows that both women and men think it is the active participation of the pupil during lessons. When the parents rank which element of the school subject physical education is most and least important, when it comes to assessment, the result shows that dance is seen as one of the less important elements. The results of the study can overall be seen as quite fragmented. One explanation concerning the fragmented results could be the question about what knowledge really is in the school subject physical education.
