Train to teach physical education and sport at a London university that has fantastic sports facilities on site.

Our physical education and sport degree teaches you the principles of teaching and coaching. The main disciplines include sport psychology, sport and exercise physiology, sociology of sport, and sport policy and development. By participating in athletics, dance, games, gymnastics, outdoor and adventurous activities and swimming, you will explore the practical areas of the national curriculum for PE.

This degree will develop your contemporary knowledge and understanding of PE and sport, as well as relevant skills for a range of sport-related careers. It is taught at Avery Hill Campus, home to our extensive sports facilities and where most of our student sports take place.

Dedicated courses in Year 1 and Year 3 prepare students to enhance their employability for PE and sport-related careers. In addition, work placement opportunities are built into each year of the programme.

Graduates are equipped to work in a variety of roles within the sports and leisure industry. Graduates are also well placed to apply for teacher training, for example, via a PGCE programme leading to Qualified Teacher Status.
