You’ll engage with teaching strategies to enhance skill development, pupils’ knowledge and understanding in PE, social development and positive emotive experiences in an active learning environment.Throughout the course, you’ll also learn how to organise, manage and teach both the practical and the theoretical aspects of the course.
