From the Publisher:

One in five children in England and Wales is now identified as having an SEN, and consequently teachers of PE are facing daily challenges to facilitate pupils' access and entitlement to inclusion in mainstream school lessons.

Offering practical strategies to include children with SEN fully into physical education, this unique title:

* applies the latest research to the practice of inclusion of children with SEN in PE
* offers an outline of the statutory responsibilities placed upon teachers and schools to include children with SEN
* covers a diverse range of issues which teachers needs to address in order to provide high quality learning experiences for children with SEN
* includes a series of reflective tasks, further reading and contacts within each chapter.

Special Educational Needs in Physical Education offers an opportunity to explore in depth the complexities of including children with SEN in PE. This is an extensive resource that requires no reference to alternative texts and is essential reading for all people involved in including children with SEN in PE.
