While much of this recent attention has focused on youth sport, concussion can occur in any type of physical activity program, including physical education, extracurricular activity programs, recess, intramural sport, interscholastic sport, and community-based sport and physical activity programs.
Because K-12 physical education teachers work with young people in one or more of these settings — and are responsible for students' health and safety on a daily basis — it's important for them to know enough about concussions to prevent them whenever possible, recognize common signs and symptoms, comply with local policy requirements, and contribute to concussion-management plans.
