Level

Year One

This module is about children and young people learning in diverse sport, exercise and physical education settings. Its basic premise is that children and young people, whatever their level of ability, have much to gain from participation in high quality physical education, sport and exercise, but a number of key factors need to be in place to maximise this learning. For example, different learners have very different needs, not all of which are catered for effectively in our current systems, and the potential health benefits from participation in physical activity are well documented, but this is also a highly complex issue.
