A two-year programme for 16-18 for students who have aspirations to pursue a career in education and sport

The Physical Education Training (PET) programme is an exciting new two-year programme for 16-18 year olds who have aspirations to pursue a career combining education and sport.

Based at Hellesdon High School and Sixth Form Centre, which is part of The Wensum Trust, students will be able to choose their own education package, selecting from a range of A-Level and vocational subjects. This will be complemented by the chance to obtain the Level 2 Certificate in ‘Supporting Physical Activity and School Sport’, alongside additional coaching qualifications with the Foundation.

Students will also have the unique opportunity to benefit from meaningful in-school work placements, delivering physical education across the four key stages.

Those that achieve the required entry grades will be guaranteed a place on the University of East Anglia’s BSc Physical Education course.

Students are able to tailor their own academic package from a range of A-level and vocational qualifications.

With each individual choice being student led, each applicant will be provided with a one-to-one discussion to finalise their education plans.

Subjects available to study include, but are not limited to: English, maths, biology, chemistry, sociology, physics, psychology, languages, geography, business studies, ICT, photography, economics and, of course, PE!

Over the two years, students will complete three additional qualifications to support them with their progression into a career within physical education.

Delivered over two hours each week, the core qualification will be the Level 2 Certificate in “Supporting Physical Activity and School Sport”, while they’ll also complete both the Level 1 and Level 2 Multi-Skills qualification.

Students will also have the unique opportunity to benefit from meaningful in-school work placements, delivering physical education across the four key stages.

Engaging with The Wensum Trust schools at infant, junior and high school level will provide “real life” opportunities to put into place the skills being developed through the programme.

Through the programme’s partnership with the University of East Anglia (UEA), students who achieve the required entry grades are guaranteed a place on the university’s BSc Physical Education course.

There is also the option to complete training a PGCE in Physical Education.
