Question 208 · LEK · Other
During a complex medical check-up for children at 3rd grade of primary school, the mother asks the doctor for a medical waiver to exempt her child from the physical education course. She claims that owing to obesity, the child has difficulty performing physical exercises and does not get such good grades as other children do. Which group of the physical education course should the doctor classify the child into?
- A. group C, for a non-defined period of time, and ask the child to show up for regular control check-ups at the clinic.
- B. group C, for a month’s time, and then make a re-assessment.
- C. group C1, as obesity is a serious disease which requires supplementary rehabilitation out of school.
- D. group B, considering the reason for the limitation and, possibly, providing guidelines to the teacher.
- E. group A, as the child should perform the same exercises as other pupils do, which will be beneficial to his/her health.
