Material: in the research pupils of 6-9 yrs age participated ( n = 94; boys- 46, girls- 48). The pupils’ physical fitness testing was carried out in compliance with school program norms. Results: as per the norms of school program most of pupils (60.9%) demonstrated high level of fitness. Exclusion was the boys’ indicators in test for flexibility. Only 12.6% of pupils fulfilled the test without remarks. 9.7% fulfilled the test at average level. 16.7% of pupils fulfilled the test at initial level. So we observed non uniform distribution of results. In the whole, by most of physical fitness indicators we observed gradual increment of result with every year. Significant improvement of results in 2nd and 3rd forms can be explained by more conscious and clear fulfillment of tests’ technique. Conclusions: we found pupils’ high physical fitness level by norms of school program. But the objectiveness of the program’s norms is doubtful. May be these norms are lowered and require reviewing.
