Research Interests

Susan’s major research interest is in the development of student (and newly qualified) physical education teachers. There are two related themes to this work: (i) student teachers development over the course of their initial teacher education programme, particularly the development of their knowledge for teaching; and (ii) roles and responsibilities of partners in secondary physical education teacher education programmes in supporting student teachers' development. Both of these two main research areas are supported by external funding.
