Since Showa 54 (1979) when the request of guidance by the Ministry of Education was strengthened, it has hoped that the students in Japan master a moral sense. For passed 20 years, in the junior high school and senior high school of Japan, the Ministry of Education has promoted instruction of Budo, and passed the guidance of Budo down. In this paper, the switchover of the contents in the sport program including Budo was studied up on the data (Lesson plans of many kinds of sports) in the custody of the Ministry of Education. The result was as follows. (1) In the schools that the guidance of Budo was promoted, the skill of Budo was taken lower importance than the traditional moral attitude of Japan. Not only in the lesson plan of Budo, but also in the lesson plan of other kind of sports, the moral attitude was esteemed. (2) After Heisei first year (1989), when the subject named “Kakugi” was changed to “Budo” in the school course guidelines, the moral attitude was esteemed more strongly in the lesson plan of Budo. (3)Especially, there were many examples of “For oneself” and “Heart” in the lesson plan of Budo, which were esteemed in concepts of the school educational world.
In the present paper, the switchover in the contents from “Budo” to “the physical education that used Budo” is discussed.
