520 _aThis fully revised and updated edition serves as a comprehensive introduction to the teaching of Physical Education (PE) in primary schools. It remains the only textbook covering the full spectrum of the subject, from policy and curriculum developments to best practices and current debates. Written exclusively by primary PE specialists with teaching experience, the book emphasizes the importance of PE in the primary curriculum and addresses key issues such as inclusion, training needs, and the development of creativity. Central to the book are core chapters examining functional areas common to many primary PE syllabi—including games, dance, gymnastics, athletics, and outdoor learning—providing clear, practical guidance on teaching each topic. The new edition includes three completely new chapters covering leadership, stakeholder interest in PE delivery, and managing transitions. Rooted in sound theory and the latest research, this book is essential reading for students, trainee teachers, and qualified teachers aiming to understand and develop their professional practice in primary PE.
