Physical Education and Sport Pedagogy is the official research journal of the Association for Physical Education. The purpose of the journal is to provide a forum for high quality educational research for a national and international readership. We intend this research to have a high impact on both policy and practice.

 

Physical Education and Sport Pedagogy publishes research that reports educational practices in all appropriate contexts, in particular school physical education, club sport, and active leisure programs. We accept for review papers on a broad range of physical activities, including aquatics, dance, exercise, gymnastics, outdoor and adventure activities, meditative and martial arts and sport. 

 

Pedagogy in these contexts refers to the interacting and interdependent components of knowledge and curriculum, learners and learning, and teachers/coaches, teaching/ coaching and teacher/ coach education. We particularly welcome papers that consider the interactions of each of these components and their practice in specific contexts.

All papers must be informed by an appropriate theoretical perspective whether they be conceptually or empirically-based. All genres of educational research will be considered. Regardless of the theoretical perspective and genre, we encourage authors to write in accessible and elegant prose. Peer Review Policy:
All research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymized refereeing by at least two anonymous referees.
