ABSTRACT
Teaching is often referred to as both an art and a science and consequently requires a combination of creativity and innovation, matched by theoretical reflection and refinement. This book aims to address this eclectic approach to teaching children with special educational needs (SEN) in the physical education (PE) curriculum. The book will discuss and debate what can be considered as the essential theoretical elements of teaching children with SEN in PE, whilst offering opportunities for reflection on how these can be delivered in practice. In addition the book encourages you to ‘think out of the box’, be open to change, have open minds, and have high expectations of children with SEN and what they can achieve in PE, school sport and lifelong learning and participation in physical activity.
