This is a thrilling era to engage with sports and Physical Education. Global challenges like the Covid-19 pandemic and resulting restrictions have highlighted how crucial a comprehensive approach to physical activity is for health and wellness.
Our program embraces this perspective with its inclusive philosophy toward sports and PE, and there's no better place to delve into this subject than London's Olympic legacy area. You'll investigate methods to maximize participation in sports and physical activities, guided by our expert faculty specializing in policy, adaptive physical education, and sports development.
You'll also collaborate with our diverse partners, from local schools to national bodies like Panathlon.
We'll prepare you to teach PE across various environments or enhance community wellbeing through sports, both during your studies and throughout your professional journey.
Your learning will blend theory with hands-on practice at SportsDock, our exceptional facility at Docklands campus that represents the excellence of our sports programs. Its quality is proven - Team USA selected it as their training hub for the 2012 London Olympics and Paralympics.
UEL's sports programs have quickly gained recognition for developing proactive graduates. Placement providers consistently praise our students, and employers actively seek UEL sports alumni. For decades, we've been shaping outstanding PE teachers from diverse backgrounds.
