afPE Celebrates 10 Years of Raising Standards
23 March 2016
The Association for Physical Education (afPE) celebrates its 10th birthday today having official launched on 23rd March 2006 at the House of Parliament. We will be hosting a celebration event at City Hall in London on 19th April – Invitations will be sent out shortly to members and VIPS. Prior to afPE’s launch there were two subject associations for Physical Education: - British Association of Advisers & Lecturers in Physical Education (baalpe)
- The Physical Education Association of the United Kingdom (PEA UK)
Both associations had long, proud histories representing the Physical Education profession. They were instrumental in both shaping the subject ensuring its status within the curriculum. baalpe and PEA UK worked closely to promote Physical Education and support the PESS workforce. In July 2005, members of both associations voted to dissolve the two organisations in favour of forming a new single subject association for Physical Education – the Association for Physical Education.
