Physical Education (P.E) is one of the most important subjects at school, it’s not just a case of standing still setting out some cones and blowing a whistle. Many people fail to understand the qualification needed to become gain a P.E teaching job, and the passion required for the role.

P.E teachers must be able to deal with misbehaviours, preferably with a patient and creative approach. They should also be open to teaching many other subjects, and most experienced P.E teachers will occasionally find themselves teaching various subjects.

A general requirement for P.E teaching jobs in the UK is an NQT, or to have Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) with a PGCE, GTP or Bachelor of education. It’s also important to work as part of a time, and often classes will join together, and being able to work alongside other PE teachers is beneficial. If you’re looking for P.E teaching jobs, then make sure your able to meet eachof these physical education requirements.
