    Physical education, a fundamental pillar of healthy child development, often faces the obstacle of teachers without specialised training in primary education. The "Coaches at School" programme represents an innovative approach to teaching physical and sport education at the first level of primary schools in Slovakia. The principle of the programme is based on the concept of tandem teaching, which consists in the cooperation of a teacher and a coach in conducting lessons. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feedback and experiences of primary school teachers, focusing on their perceptions of coaches' involvement in tandem teaching of physical and sport education within the framework of the "Coaches at School" programme in Slovakia. The research sample consisted of 465 primary school teachers in grades 1 to 4 in Slovakia who were involved in tandem teaching in the 2023/2024 school year. The data obtained by the questionnaire were processed by percentage analysis and the Chi-square (χ²) goodness-of-fit test was used for statistical processing of the empirical data. Teachers rated the program as attractive to children, with a high level of active involvement of all children, including the less physically able. The presence of a coach had a positive impact on the quality of teaching, and tandem work provided several benefits, including increased safety and teaching efficiency. Future research should assess the long-term impact of tandem teaching on teachers' professional development, teacher satisfaction and ability to adapt to innovative pedagogical approaches. The study is supported by The Scientific Grant Agency of the Ministry of Education, Research, Development and Youth of the Slovak Republic (VEGA) with the grant number č. 1/0127/23.

    Tandem teaching, as one of the dynamically developing didactic strategies, has proven to have a great potential in the process of improving the quality of the educational process. Our research was carried out within the framework of the national program "Coaches in School", which brings to schools an innovative approach to teaching physical education (PE) at the primary schools. Its main goal is to increase physical activity of children in the long term through the integration of sports coaches into the educational process at the primary schools in a tandem way. This study investigated primary school pupils' perspectives on the influence of coaches on PE lessons. The research was conducted as a multi-group pedagogical experiment in 236 primary schools in Slovakia during the school year 2023/2024. The experiment involved a total of 2343 pupils in 1.-4. grades. A total of 30736 PE lessons were taught in tandem. The research sample consisted of (EG, n=1878) pupils in the experimental group who attended tandem PE lessons with a coach and teacher and (CG, n=465) pupils in the control group who attended traditional teacher-led PE lessons. Data were collected via an electronic questionnaire and the relationship between group membership (EG/CG) and pupils perceptions was analysed using a chi-square (χ2) test. Statistically significant differences were observed in several items of the questionnaire. The results of the research demonstrated the effect of tandem teaching with a coach on the formation of a positive emotional attachment to PE lessons, 86.7% of the pupils in the experimental group rated the lessons taught in tandem as very enjoyable and that they looked forward to the following lessons. The study was supported by the scientific agency (VEGA 1/0127/23) Tandem teaching of physical and sport education in primary school and its impact on motor, cognitive and emotional development of pupils.
