In this episode I dig into how the PE Games app — now with built-in AI generation — gives PE teachers a way to adapt lessons on the spot. Equipment short on the day? Lost the gym to a school assembly? Pulled in for relief? The app's AI generator turns those moments from stressful into solved in 30 seconds, with context-aware activities you can actually run with the class in front of you.
