Ready, Steady, Go¡
Abstract
Traditionally, physical education has no place in technical education. Until recently it was quite disregarded and there are still thousands of teachers in FE (of all persuasions) who fail to see what purpose it serves and what relevance it has to the needs of their students. Its only value in their eyes is that, like English and Social Studies, it breaks up the poleaxing slabs of work that form the part‐time students' day. This prejudice is widely held in industry by all except the most enlightened. Industry's view is refreshingly direct. If they are paying for a lad to continue his studies and make himself more useful to them, then PE is an irrelevance. It used to be the same with English, of course.
