To examine the basic question, primary and secondary data have been analyzed in line with basic theoretical and conceptual arguments of the subject. The result revealed that, most of the selected physical education teachers do not have the interest to impliment a student-centered method of teaching. This is due to the presence large number of students in classroom. Furthermore, the result also confirmed the lack of support towards the active learning approach by the principals of all the selected General High Schools.
