- Book Synopsis
- This book is a concise and practical guide to the development of professional knowledge in primary physical education. Covering core concepts and key skills and exploring the everyday reality of working in primary physical education (PE), the book describes the essential professional knowledge needed to become an effective PE teacher at the primary level.Placing a strong emphasis on inclusive practice and including useful features in every chapter, such as case studies and guides to further reading, the book explains how the 'professional knowledge model' can be applied in primary physical education, acting as a framework for practitioners to explore and improve their own professional practice. Introducing the principles of fundamental movement in the context of child development, the book examines key professional skills, from planning and observation to assessment and advocacy, as well as other areas of professional knowledge that practitioners will need over the course of a career, such as working with others in primary PE and whole school approaches to movement.This book is essential reading for any teacher, subject leader, trainee, student, coach or instructor working in physical education at the primary or elementary level.
