This book was written at a time of great change in §educational policy and practice in England and §Wales. Recent legislative changes to the curriculum §require that critical thinking is now fostered for §all pupils in every curriculum area. Changes in the §subject area of Physical Education (PE), have given §rise to a new PE curriculum that has at its core, §conceptual understanding of practical activity §areas in a structure that maximises pupils thinking §and acknowledges how critical thinking permeates §this dynamic subject. With a dearth of research into §thinking in PE, the book explores critical thinking §in the context of school PE lessons and the §instructional factors that foster or constrain it. §This book seeks to make a unique contribution to the §debate into what constitutes critical thinking in PE §and illuminates practice in both primary and §secondary schools. Its conclusions will be of value §to policy-makers and practitioners in advancing §knowledge of critical thinking in Physical Education.
