Education & Training

We deliver the Level 2 Physical Education and School Sport qualification as a stand- alone qualification to support those that wish to deliver in a school environment under the supervision of a more qualified individual, such as a Level 3 Physical Education and School Sport coach or qualified teacher. If you are not looking for an stand-alone course, please view our available apprenticeships.
