Abstract
Historical studies regarding assessment in Health and Physical Education resonate with concerns regarding quality and consistency. This thesis explored the assessment behaviours of four junior secondary Health and Physical Education teachers when making judgements about motor performance. The Three Key Attributes of Quality Assessment theoretically underpinned qualitative analysis of field observations, semi-structured interviews and focus group sessions. A lack of teacher assessment literacy and insufficient resourcing highlighted concerns regarding initial teacher education and support offered through compulsory professional development which, consequently, were identified as significant factors that influenced how teachers make judgements about physical performance in Health and Physical Education.
