Welcome to episode 176 of The PE Umbrella podcast, the ONLY dedicated Primary PE Podcast in the world!

Joining me Under the Umbrella this week is special education PE teacher, YST inclusion lead and GB age-group triathlete Rachel Bown.  To say that Rachel is an inspiration would be a huge understatement.  She has led a remarkable life and brings countless fascinating insights to discussions focused around PE, PA, wellbeing and mindset.  I am delighted to be able to bring you the first of a two-part interview with Rachel.  During part one, our focus was solely on Physical Education as we shared stories, insights, tips and tricks from her 20+ years experience that you can take away, ponder and action into your own work if it fits!

The conversation was free-flowing and there were many tangents explored, but rest assured, we covered many of the staple questions of The PE Umbrella podcast including:

– What currently excites you about PE?

– What is your perfect primary PE lesson recipe?

– What was the worst PE lesson you ever taught and why?

-Advice for differentiation and inclusive PE?

All of that plus top class-management tips and her favourite warm-up games!

So what are you waiting for? Come on over and join us Under the PE Umbrella for part 1 of this excellent interview.
