Train to teach physical education and sport on this extended degree and benefit from being at a London university that has fantastic sports facilities on site and sport-related work placements.

Our extended physical education and sport degree starts with a foundation year to prepare you for degree-level study. Following this, you study the same modules as our three-year course.

The main disciplines include sport psychology, sport and exercise physiology, sociology of sport, and sport policy and development. You'll explore the practical areas of the national curriculum for PE, including athletics, dance, games, gymnastics, outdoor and adventurous activities, and swimming.

This degree develops your contemporary knowledge and understanding of PE and sport, as well as relevant skills for a range of sport-related careers. The course is taught at Avery Hill Campus, home to our extensive sports facilities and most of our student sports activities.

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.
