If you have a passion for physical activity and sport, and wish to teach at secondary school or college level, then our PGCE Secondary Physical Education course is an ideal option for you. This full-time, one-year course is designed to train you as a confident and inspiring secondary teacher. At the end of this one-year degree, you’ll be ready to confidently begin teaching PE in a secondary school. Our PGCE Secondary Physical Education course offers you the chance to build knowledge of your chosen subject area and wider professional teaching skills such as lesson planning, learning strategies, behaviour management and more. This is achieved through a balance of study of the knowledge, skills and attitudes required by the teaching profession, the fundamentals of the national curriculum, and a dedicated focus on the development of your understanding of the role of a secondary school teacher. In addition, you will gain vital hands-on experience of working within the classroom through our 28-week placement programme, which will develop your confidence and competence to teach effectively. After successful completion, you will be recommended for Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) so that you can begin working as a teacher in a secondary school.
