20:05 @colport should we select physed for the teacher or the students?

#ukedchat what do you feel confident to teach?

20:05 Some teachers are expected to teach PE with virutally no training,

that must be very hard #UKEdChat

20:09 @colport seriously though.. you wouldn't let the kids sit out

because something was outside their comfort zone #UKEdChat

20:10 @Creativeedu I rest my case! LOL ;-) - My favourite element of PE

Can PE be used to break down divides and build cohesive teams or

does it just accentuate differences/encourage competition?

#ukedchat

20:55

@colport COMPLETELY AGREE! #ukedchat

20:55

@ivesey I guess it depends on how much it was valued and if it can

be sustained. Good examples will be greatly missed if they go
