This is newly setup for pupils studying Standard Grade Physical Education at James Gillespie’s High School.  The plan for this blog is for me to publish a series of questions every week relating to one area within Physical Education, in your own time you will answer the questions.  One week after I publish a question I will put up the correct answers or marking scheme for you to mark it yourself.

If you have any comments on the questions put on the site feel free to post them but remember I will only publish comments that will help other people develop a deeper understanding.
