It’s amazing to see our new book, Coaching WalkThrus, being used in schools to support teachers’ PD! Super proud of this book, and the feedback so far has been fab! Grab your copy now!

[Walkthrus @WALKTHRUs_5]

Our WalkThrus Implementation Projects help schools build coaching-based PD systems that really last. Grounded in a shared understanding of how learning happens, what effective teaching looks like, and what makes PD work, they provide a realistic, sustainable path to school-wide improvement.

@MissBPE7 I’m behind the times there (and behind with messages it seems)…

Worth a look?

[Mr Trowbridge PE @TrowbridgePE]

I don’t suppose anyone would know where to get some license free clips of sporting “super moments” for use with PE?

Needs to be isolated clips that are saveable to launch in an assignment space.

[Mr Trowbridge PE @TrowbridgePE]

@Jonmurray07 Thanks…What software do you use for that Jon? Always find them a bit hit and miss with payment, upgrades or viruses.

[Mr Trowbridge PE @TrowbridgePE]

Ordered already - following on from “Is PE in Crisis?”, which had such a significant impact on my practice, I am looking forward to a page turner that will further challenge my approach to providing positive teaching experiences for learners.

'From PE Dread to Delight'...Out Tomorrow (22/7/25)

Chapter 11: Holistic

“PE, sport & physical activity are so much more than skills, techniques, winning, losing, rules and competition.”

How can I design PE lessons that support students' physical, cognitive, and social growth?

Chapter 7: Excellence

“The more we chase the excellence mirage in PE, the more we lose sight of our original goals and intentions.”

How would your curriculum look if it aimed for lifelong participation, rather than elite performance?

[PE Scholar @PEScholar]

'From PE Dread to Delight'...5 Days to Go

Chapter 1: Direction

"PE not only lacks a universally agreed-upon mission, but receives numerous mixed directions, resulting in inconsistencies in its implementation."

Has a lack of clear purpose created conflict in your PE setting?

[Mr Trowbridge PE @TrowbridgePE]

We are also very excited to excited to welcome our prospective learners from Year 6 in our cluster. Hopefully some old friends and siblings to join our ACS family 🖤💛

DofE learners will be making a big splash down Cardiff too 💦

@Suzannelesley61 @PEScholar Perhaps “gained time” should provide more rationale - albeit wanting to be directed by school (given a focus). But yes, we don’t offer anything after school on Tuesdays due to directed time (and Thursdays when parents’ evenings).

[Mr Trowbridge PE @TrowbridgePE]

Been quiet for a while on here - job focus and family focus…a healthier switch than I’ve ever had.

Now Yr 11 are gone, what are your opinions on directed time? Throwing some ideas for the dept together that link to our DIP direction and PD. Any suggestions to add? @PEScholar

[Mr Trowbridge PE @TrowbridgePE]

@Suzannelesley61 @PEScholar Absolutely! Before it was even micromanaged. Now it seems a little more trust.

[Lee Sullivan @Lee_Sullivan85]

“I can’t wait to read ‘From PE Dread to Delight’ when it’s published soon. I highly recommend this to anyone involved with PE.”

Ok, he didn’t say that. But he thought it, probably.
