Abstract

Abstract T his paper explores the perceptions and practices of CPD providers for Physical Education (PE) teachers in Oman. Based on qualitative research in-depth semi-structured interviews with total of ten CPD providers who conducted to examine their perceptions and practices regarding existing CPD provisions in Oman. The purpose of this paper is to contribute the development of the knowledge base on ways CPD providers conceptualize and practice CPD in various national contexts. In addition, as research on teachers' CPD is increasing, there is no research on PE teachers' CPD. The results of the study showed that CPD providers believed that to improve the quality of provision, professional developers should be supported forward to learn and grow. The paper also address insight on the concerns regarding the repetitive content of opportunities and the limited number of CPD programmes offered to teachers. There was a consensus that CPD providers were also in need of more preparation courses, especially at the beginning of their career, to build their knowledge and skills effectively and deliver CPD programmes for teachers.
