Do you want to know more about the key aspects of teaching PE?
Would you like help in planning effective PE lessons?
Would you like to begin to develop your own personal teaching philosophy?

Then this is the essential guide for you!

This book will support you in your initial teacher training programme and beyond, taking you through the wide range of issues that you need to consider in order to become a successful teacher and develop successful learners.

Each chapter looks at important aspects of PE teaching and relates it directly to the PE lesson and how pupils learn. It covers key areas, including:

Planning
Assessment
Lesson organization
Managing pupil behaviour
Health and safety
ICT

There is a sample lesson plan at the end of every chapter which shows the reader how to incorporate aspects of the PE National Curriculum into each lesson. Reflection tasks are included throughout to encourage trainee teachers to critically analyze their own practice. This is supported with real life examples of teacher and trainee experiences of teaching PE in secondary schools.

The book also provides guidance to the trainee teacher applying for their first post in a school. The authors offer common interview questions to help the reader formulate and justify a personal philosophy of teaching PE which will be vital to their personal and professional development, as well as the interview process itself.

This book is essential reading for all trainee and practising secondary school PE teachers.
