Opis

Most primary teachers are very insecure about teaching physical education due to very short ITT courses (some as little as six hours), and little continuing training in schools because of the focus of the core subjects. The authors have included information on all six areas of the PE National Curriculum (games, gymnsatic activities, dance, swimming, outdoor and adventurous activities, athletic activities) to increase subject knowledge and to develop teaching, management and planning skills.
