What does good teaching look like in PE? How can I assess such a practical subject effectively? this new and updated edition provides answers to those questions covers issues in Physical Education and provides a wealth of practical advice on teaching across the stages of the new 2014 curriculum. Drawing upon the authors experiences as a teacher coach lecturer and adviser it delivers a justification for PE as an essential element in the Primary curriculum imbues a theory into practice approach that provides readers with clarity instils confidence and offers a licence to teach all practical aspects of PE effectively and creatively underpinned by knowledge of childrens development, their learning and the critical professional issues in PE today.
