📄 Delighted to share our new Frontiers in Cognition paper

🏫 Pupils of the same chronological age can differ in biological maturity, which influences associations for inhibitory control and working memory, particularly in boys.

Data released today shows the amount of PE hours taught in schools has fallen again, now down a staggering 41,000 a year since 2011/12.⬇️

This is incredibly concerning given less than half of children and young people are achieving the recommended 60 active minutes a day.

As our manifesto for action sets out, we need to make PE a core subject and guarantee every child two hours of PE a week. 🙌

@EnglishOER Thank you for sharing this, Anna. Really useful and very thought-provoking!

We are getting to the time of year when many non-PE teachers will request that Y11 students miss PE for extra revision/support in other subjects. Please don’t let them, this is when the students need PE/PA most.
