It is definitely peeling up in large chips! When chipping happens, the wood may have not been primed prior to painting.

In Summary: In this case, you'll have to scrape all of this loose paint and then prime the area before re-painting. Take those chips with you to the paint store to get your paint matched! Pro tip: Need at least a nickel-size paint sample.
