Can You Be Fined For Emptying A Swimming...
Civil1 min ago
I am 16 and am thinking about what i want to do for my future career. I love sport and am interested in becoming a PE teacher, however a lot of people have advised me against teaching, as apparently it can be harder work then first thought and you end up with hardly any free time. I have also thought about working in a lesiure centre as opposed to in a school. Does anybody teach PE or something similar who could offer any advice??
Thanks!! ;-)
oh and another thing...... what is the pay like if you teach?? apparently its a bit rubbish!!!! is that ture/false??

I think i'll try to organise some more work experience in a PE department in a school 'cause that would probably be better than cleaning and answering the telephone!!
Anyway, thanks for your help.

I wanted to be a PE teacher when I was your age too, but my family, friends and teachers told me I was too academic for it as a career and I acted on their 'advice'. 7 years and a Politics degree later, I'm applying for a 4 year PE teacher training degree - go with what you want to do and you cant go wrong. Dont let other people scare you off - research it and make your own decision.
Besides, even if you do a degree in PE teaching, you dont necessarily have to go into teaching - a number of other sport related careers will also be open to you!
