\nAbout<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Physical Education (PE) has holistic benefits for all in physical, social and cognitive domains. In the interest of the holistic development of young children, generalist primary school teachers teach all subjects of the curriculum in many countries while other countries have specialiss PE teachers or both. Literature highlights the challenges teachers experience teaching PE, particularly as non-specialist teachers. Therefore, adequate PE teacher education (PETE) programmes (initial teacher education; induction; CPD\/in-service education) preparing for the delivery of
quality PE (QPE) are of highest importance.
The project partners recognise that one issue for PETE curriculum formulation is what constitutes a PE teacher and that current diverse European-wide practices need to be taken into account. Thus, not all teachers in charge of primary PE are specialist PE teachers, in order that when the terms \u201cPE teacher\u201d or \u201cPETE (PE teacher education)\u201d are used in the context of this project, it is referred to any teacher teaching PE adhering to one of the three profiles described above.
In consequence, the project partners are seeking for a general approach focusing on PE teacher education, allowing an adaptation to national\/regional contexts and\/or different phases of teacher education (initial teacher education; induction; CPD\/in-service education). Because of the diverse accreditation practices of well-established and legally constituted national PETE frameworks across Europe, the need for flexibility in PETE provision has to be recognized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Objectives
– to bring together European Higher Education Institutions and other stakeholders active in Primary PETE and to foster their cooperation in PETE and mobility exchange
– to provide an overview of Primary PETE in Europe
– to inform and facilitate the formulation of a profile of a primary PE teacher and a modular curriculum for Primary PETE based on this profile and core principles
– to make this modular curriculum available for any interested stakeholders
– to foster the delivery of QPE in primary education by strengthening the primary PE teacher profession<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n\n
