Evaluation in physical education encompasses three stages: initial, formative and summative. The initial assessment diagnoses the level of knowledge and skills of students and can be identified as a starting point. Formative assessment is continuous and occurs throughout the teaching–learning process, providing constant feedback and allowing adjustments in teaching to better meet students’ needs. Summative assessment (final evaluation) occurs at the end of a stage, with the aim of measur‑ ing progress and acquisition of skills throughout the process. They not only measure students’ performance but also guide the development of their physical and cognitive capabilities in a more efficient and personalized context.
