School is a particularly relevant social context for the individuals' development, providing access to opportunities to improve health and access to a quality education on an equitable basis. As the only subject in the school curriculum whose focus combines the body and physical competence with learning based on values and communication, Physical Education is recognized by UNESCO as a privileged environment where children and young people can develop the skills required to succeed as an active part of 21st century societies. Quality participation in physical education is one of the most important ways of ensuring active and healthy citizenship, which also includes taking responsibility and valuing inclusive participation in physical activity throughout life. Physical Literacy, defined as the integrated development of motivation, confidence, physical competence, knowledge and understanding to engage in physical activity throughout life, is considered the ultimate outcome of Quality Physical Education. This chapter aims to contribute to the sistematization of Pedagogical intervention strategies for the development of Physical Literacy in the context of Physical Education.
