Membership Benefits
Members of the IPPEA receive the following benefits:
- A quarterly newsletter with updates on IPPEA activities and teaching tips
- A reduced fee for the annual conference
- The right to attend and vote at the IPPEA AGM
- It is planned that a “members only” section will be developed on the website with restricted access to teaching tips and resources
As the IPPEA is a non-profit organisation, membership subscriptions are used to promote physical activity in primary schools and to raise awareness of PE issues in schools and throughout the wider community.
