The new Health and Movement Science syllabus has left many NSW teachers feeling overwhelmed, underprepared and time-poor. But for Lucy Pearce, an experienced PDHPE educator working part-time in a regional school, the game-changer has been The Learning Network’s HMS Membership.
In this episode of The PDHPE & CAFS Podcast, Lucy shares her powerful story of returning to senior PDHPE after a decade, navigating new content while balancing life as a careers advisor and parent. From advocating for HMS to be taught face-to-face in her regional Catholic school to leaning heavily on ready-made resources and unit outlines, Lucy opens up about how support from The Learning Network has helped her
✔️ Confidently teach Health and Movement Science without starting from scratch
✔️ Deliver engaging, syllabus-aligned lessons while juggling other roles
✔️ Build strong student connections in a small senior class setting
✔️ Save hours of prep with assessment templates, slides and resource booklets
✔️ Feel part of a wider community of like-minded teachers
Whether you’re just starting out with HMS or deep in the trenches of assessment and planning, Lucy’s story is a reminder that you don’t have to do it alone.
