We remember so little of our earliest experiences, yet they shape and orchestrate so much of our life journey.\u00a0 This presentation draws on the lessons that so many adults teach us about the importance of high-quality provision and support in early childhood for parents and carers.\u00a0 It will specifically focus on the role of Early Childhood Education and Care in creating opportunities that draw on theory, statistics and lived experience to ensure that Early Childhood is a catalyst of change.\u00a0<\/summary>\n

Schools have long been seen as \u2018ideal settings\u2019 for promoting health-related physical activity. In recent years, however, the ostensible benefits of physical activity have been linked to an expanding range of outcomes \u2013 cognition and mental wellbeing, for example \u2013 that relate to learning and academic achievement. Physically active learning (PAL) is one of the more recent approaches that has gained traction in schools, which has the aim of integrating physical activity into teaching. This presentation explores the emergence, development and implementation of PAL in selected countries such as Norway and England. More specifically, it explores how PAL is perceived by teachers and young people as well as some of its impacts. In so doing, it considers a number of important questions relating to this increasingly popular justification for physical activity in schools and the implications for policy and practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
