Most studies of beginning teachers' concerns tend to treat teachers as a homogeneous group. Just as research concerned with rural education suggests that beginning teachers in rural schools have particular concerns and needs, this paper claims that the subject area in which teachers work also shapes their professional and personal experiences. The concerns of beginning Health and Physical Education (HPE) teachers in rural and provincial secondary schools are shared to reveal both similarities and differences when compared to generic research on rural, beginning teachers.
