Abstract
This chapter focuses on the ever expanding group of professional development providers which may include, amongst others, consultants, commercial businesses, LAs, colleges of further education, HEIs and subject associations. It will draw specifically on research undertaken with a range of such providers in England, which was commissioned by the subject association for physical education in the UK, afPE, to illustrate the need for serious consideration of the evaluation of the impact of their provision, not only on the participants of the professional development provision, but also on the ‘end-users’, their pupils/students.
