In this study it is aimed to examine teachers and administrators’ views on the productivity of physical education courses in schools that have just been approved by the Primary Years Programme PYP or current candidates to implement PYP. The purpose of this research is to determine the answers to the questions such as the extent of productivity which the PYP has increased in the physical education classes or how much it has influenced the engagement in the lesson, the necessity of PYP education for physical education teachers, whether the physical education teachers are satisfied with the PYP implementation or the PYP is removing the practices from the nature of the physical education courses and how the administrators evaluate the effect of the PYP to the physical education lessons. The study was conducted with the physical education teachers, administrators and Primary Years Program PYP coordinators who worked in three private schools in Ankara in the academic year 20162017. In this studyparticipants' opinions were assessed through semi-structured interview form and the obtained data were analyzed according to descriptive analysis method. As a result of the research, as physical education teachers in PYP approved schools have been practicing PYP more faithfully and willingly, there are positive feedbacks to the lesson, to themselves and to the students which increases classroom engagement especially in the physical education lessons and leads to a more active lesson than classical teaching methods, whereas teachers in the candidate process and teachers with no experience in PYP consider PYP as a burden, excess of paperwork and slowing down the lesson. Has been observed that the administrators also argue that the physical education course does not go away from the essence of the lesson and that the students can realize the awareness of doing sports in active life with a much different learning environment but only with believing physical education teachers
