Synopsis

Promoting Active Lifestyles in Schools helps teachers promote healthy and active lifestyles, not just in Physical Education (PE) classes but throughout the day. The book takes a holistic approach towards physical activities. This exposes teachers to a wide range of opportunities that can enhance their pupil's engagement in physical activity. The text includes a range of health-related learning activities for pupils of different ages that are developmentally appropriate, as well as inclusive and progressive. The practical activities throughout the text allow teachers to broaden their skills in physical activity and health promotion. These ideas equip students with the knowledge, skills, competence and confidence they need to engage in physically active lifestyles.
