Abstract

The high-quality development of physical education programs is an integral component of building a high-quality education system, and Teacher Education Accreditation in China provides a solid foundation for such development. This study combines normative analysis with policy-text interpretation to examine the substantive implications of teacher education accreditation, and further proposes strategies for advancement: strengthening the accreditation regime for physical education programs, establishing a dedicated accreditation body for the field, and encouraging universities to undertake comprehensive reforms in accordance with accreditation requirements.
