    First Published in 1999. This book offers a practical approach to te teaching of Physical Education to children who have severe learning difficulties and profound motor learning difficulties. The authors consider the 'learning to move, moving to learn' continuum as a route forward and include strategies for children who also have emotional and behavioural difficulties. With information on motor development and advice on planning, teaching and evaluating a PE programme, the book provides practical support for all those working in this and related fields. Although largely aimed at those working in special schools, the book also recognises the difficulties that children with special educational needs encounter in mainstream schools.
