The aim of the study was to establish whether there were any differences between groups of pupils attending a `sport class' for eight years and those attending a 'regular class', and which of the included variables contributed most to these differences. Three generations of pupils participated in the experiment, that is 134 pupils in total. 68 pupils attended the 'sport class' (the experimental group) and 66 were in the regular school programme (the control group). The sample of variables consisted of selected tests of pupils' motor abilities and morphological characteristics, grades in individual school subjects, values, attitude to physical activity, motivational orientation in physical education and their social status. The discriminant analysis confirmed the statistical significance of the differences between the groups of pupils attending the sport class and the regular school programme (Wilks' λ 0.51; F(11.122) = 10.68; p<0.000) and the significance of the discriminant power of the canonical discriminant function (own λ = 0.91; Wilks' λ = 0.51; Hi² = 85.32; df =11; p<0.000). The largest and only significant correlation with the canonical discriminant function was recorded in the variable `parents' education', based on which the function was nanied `family educational level'. It is evident that in a family environment, where high levels of knowledge and education are perceived as values, parents show a greater interest in and care for both education and for their children to develop a healthy lifestyle.
