Abstract

In this chapter we first outline the Irish educational context and introduce the key actors of the physical education and sport pedagogy (PESP) workforce. Then, we present examples of collaborative efforts where these actors work together towards a shared goal. This chapter concludes with considerations for future development. Acknowledging the complex dynamics, the PESP workforce in Ireland is testament of collective effort and dedication, with evidence of progress and goodwill from all stakeholders. This points to a promising future for the Irish PESP workforce research and development, built on a solid foundation and a commitment to innovation and growth.
