Research Interests

Dr Penny Lamb is a Senior Lecturer in Education and the Academic Director for undergraduate and post graduate Physical Education & Sport Degree Programmes in the School.  Her research interests lie in the area of physical education pedagogy, with a particular emphasis on inclusive policy and practice within the subject and she co-ordinates the School's Physical Education & Sport Pedagogy research group.  Penny is currently exploring the educational and social potential of engagement in sport among the homeless excluded and is also involved in a small scale TDA project using ICT and student teachers to work with disaffected and 'at risk' pupils in challenging school contexts.  Prior to working at UEA, Penny taught for fifteen years in the State, Independent and Further Education sectors.
