This paper is a brief reflection about the attributions of school physical education through the 20th and beginning of the 21st centuries, with a special focus on high school. The main objective is to analyze critically, based on legal documentation, the consolidation of basic education in Brazil and the attributions of physical education in said process. It was along the 20th century that basic education consolidated in Brazil and physical education became a mandatory curricular component, with a role well defined by legislation. In the first decades of the 21st century the mandatory aspect began to be questioned, especially in the new high school, given the problems afflicting that stage of basic education that underwent a curricular and structural reform. The conclusion states that the attributions of physical education are bounded to the context in which they are forged.
