@teacherhead @NWalkerPE Thanks for re sharing @teacherhead. We are seeing real benefits of using the Walkthrus with our trainee teachers. Can you please direct me to the PE resource you mention?

Context is important:

There are 1,000,000 more pupils in school compared with 2010, so the 27,000 teachers mean that's 1 per 37 pupils - so not enough to maintain the same pupil:staff ratio as 2010.

The percentage of primary school pupils that met the expected standard in SAT's dropped 2% just today despite lowering the pass mark from 29 to 24.

A significant number of the current Outstanding schools were awarded this pre-2010.

You have changed OFSTED frameworks three times since 2010.

Exciting new research on the impact and implementation of @We_Are_CAS in Bradford schools. CAS creates impactful cultural change in school- see below and red paper for further insights. Led by @jadelynnemorris

@DrAshCox @RPOTyler @PhysActivityEd @EHU_Research @EHUSportandPA @ConversationUK I couldn't agree more Ash. ITE and CPD are key. I also worry that 'PE-as-fitness' (overly simplistic, I know), at the cost of promoting an active lifestyle more broadly, could be as poor as 'PE-as-sports-techniques'

@paulsammonPE @Lee_Sullivan85 @Cambs_PE @afPE_PE @Cruelty3Dancer @UoB_PhysEd @PE_Hub I personally think that we need help to petition government and school governing bodies/trustees on this one. Thoughts? Has anyone done this before? A good start would to to suggest amends to the non-stat. guidance on school uniforms to promote PE kit https://t.co/aY1FcfoxQ1

@ThePEUmbrella @leedsbeckett Congrats Ryan 👏
