The common problem of rural primary school Physical Education (PE) is the same consensus of the education sector in China. According to the materials obtained from the interviews with the students in the teaching practice process, the common problems of China’s rural primary school PE include: insufficient or no physical education class; lack of physical education equipment and sports fields; serious shortage of Physical Education teachers; and nearly no physical education teaching and learning activities based on an established instructional plan. These problems reflect the real state of current rural primary school PE in China, and have always been the basic state of rural primary school PE in China.
