Summary:

"Physical Education for Young People with Disabilities explores a range of methods that Physical Education teachers can discover and engage with in order to ensure that their practice is more inclusive, no matter which age group they work with. Offering many practical ideas to include pupils with specific additional needs across a range of activity areas such as athletics, dance, gymnastics and swimming, this book will increase practitioner confidence, enabling them to feel equipped to meet individual needs and include all pupils in their lessons. The range of authors provides a wide perspective and wealth of experience and all the ideas have been trialled with students and young people, both nationally and internationally. Written by practitioners for practitioners, this book is a valuable resource for trainee teachers, in-service teachers, and practitioners working in a practical or sporting context with young people, and will support Physical Education lessons and physical activity sessions"-- Provided by publisher.
