Material & Methods: analysis and generalization of scientific and methodological literature; study of documentary materials and systematization of information; pedagogical observation; biomedical methods; pedagogical testing; methods of mathematical statistics. Results: according to the results of the initial study, the “average” level of physical health of schoolchildren of 7th grades was determined, “below the average” – for students of 8–9th grades and the “low” level of physical preparedness of the studied contingent. Conclusions: the revealed and significant changes (p<0,05–0,001) of indicators of physical health and physical preparedness of students in grades 7–9 of the main groups indicate the effectiveness of the proposed program for differentiating the content of physical education classes.
