"Physical Education 5-11 is about lighting or relighting a fire in all those who have the privilege and the responsibility of teaching children physical education in Primary schools today. It is written at a time of great change: a revised Primary curriculum; an increased drive to raise achievement and potentially a narrowing of curricular scope in favour of literacy and numeracy. It is little wonder that teachers are looking for certainty and answers to questions such as: What do I teach in PE? - What do I need to know about children's development? - What does good teaching look like in PE? How can I assess such a practical subject effectively?"--provided by publisher
