  There are many issues covered in initial teacher training which student PE teachers must apply to their own subject. However, the complexity of PE can make this difficult to do. This book is designed to address issues specifically for student PE teachers. It uses PE settings rather than adapting classroom examples and explores issues which student PE teachers are likely to face. The book covers basic teaching skills and underpinning theory. It also includes activities which can be undertaken alone, with another student or with a tutor. By relating these specifically to PE, it will help student teachers to develop basic teaching skills, professional judgement, the ability to reflect critically, and a knowledge and understanding of the wider considerations of PE.
