Work Activities

Physical education (PE) teachers encourage young people to take part in physical activities and sport. They must be able to organise and supervise groups, coach in various skills and motivate young people to improve their performance.

Other activities may include providing specialist coaching to individuals, refereeing matches, travelling with school teams or taking groups to outdoor activity centres.

School classes usually contain students with a wide range of abilities and interests. Encouraging young people to take an interest in sport and keep fit is not always easy.

Depending on circumstances, teaching methods include whole class lessons, group work and demonstrations. Teachers provide support and back-up at all times and help students on an individual basis as required. Teachers set assignments, projects and tests, carry out continuous assessment and mark students' work and examinations. They prepare students for national examinations.

At all times they must maintain good order among students and deal speedily and effectively with discipline issues.

Away from their daily teaching duties, PE teachers carry out a wide range of other tasks, including preparing lessons, taking pupils on educational trips and outings, doing administrative work such as keeping records and writing reports, attending staff meetings and preparing for and attending parent-teacher meetings.

Personal Qualities and Skills

As a physical education (PE) teacher, you must be able to communicate effectively with your students, be able to interest and involve them and encourage them to learn and develop. To do this, you must be enthusiastic, energetic, flexible and patient and be prepared to look for and try out innovative approaches. You have to be aware of differing abilities and be sensitive to physical limitations. You should be able to encourage students who are not good at sports, or who do not initially enjoy sporting activities, to progress at their own pace.

You must be able to be firm and to enforce discipline in an acceptable way, when necessary. An understanding of adolescent psychology will assist with this, as it will with all aspects of the teaching process. You must be able to stay calm when under pressure and when dealing with any disruptive pupils. A good sense of humour is important.

You need to be well organised and approach your teaching activities in a methodical and systematic way. A lot of the time you will be working on your own with your classes, but you will also be part of the wider school community, so teamworking skills are important too.
