Facilitating radical change in physical education through international collaboration

The Physical Education Teacher Academy brought together teacher educators and teachers across Europe to reimagine the future of physical education and teacher education. This website shares the project’s research and educational resources, alongside new work building on its foundations.

The Physical Education Teacher Academy (PhysEd-Academy) aimed to promote equitable outcomes in physical education for children and young people, pre-service teachers, practising teachers, and teacher educators. Its resources continue to support the initial and ongoing professional learning of physical education teachers and teacher educators.

We share a commitment to more equitable physical education for children and young people, and to the initial and ongoing professional learning of teachers and teacher educators.

This collaboration began with the Erasmus+ Physical Education Teacher Academy project, which explored signature pedagogies of physical education teacher education. The project’s partnerships, research and educational resources provide a foundation for continued collaboration.

Building on this work, the project EquiPETE advances research and pedagogical development focused on equity, diversity and inclusion in physical education and teacher education.

This website also hosts the new project, sharing its activities and emerging resources alongside those of PhysEd-Academy.
