‘Better Movers and Thinkers’ (BMT)

Here at Murrayburn we also advocate BMT as a key approach to learning and teaching in Physical Education. BMT develops Active Learners and enhances key skills such as focus and attention, decision making, problem solving, creativity and working memory. 

Here is a link to the Education Scotland webpage which provides more information on BMT:
