In episode 25 of the Platform to Perform Podcast I interviewed Head of Athletic Development of St Davids College in Llandudno, Ross Williams.

With 40% of pupils at St Davids College having dyspraxia, Ross has some refreshing views on how to reinvigorate the P.E curriculum in a way that is accessible to all pupils, whilst not simply accepting participation numbers as the sole metric that the school’s P.E program is having success.

 

In my humble opinion, Ross’ views of how physical education should be delivered within a school are WELL ahead of the game, as we discussed:

 

· Why the traditional sport-focused model of P.E is broken

· How to tweak sessions for pupils with reluctances towards specific movements

· Stealing ideas from computer games to ramp up the popularity of P.E
