Physical education vocational teacher to physical education teacher secondary school
A physical education vocational teacher already meets 67% of what the physical education teacher secondary school role asks for. The move turns on 10 required skills not yet in the profile.
44.3/ 100
1 How much of what a physical education teacher secondary school is expected to do is already part of a physical education vocational teacher’s work. Directional: the figure for the reverse move differs, because moving into a speciality is not the same problem as moving out of one. 2 Every skill the physical education teacher secondary school role is recorded as needing, required and optional together. What these numbers mean.
Why this move works
A physical education teacher secondary school role treats 23 of its required skills as things a physical education vocational teacher already does. You would walk in with these on day one.
- apply intercultural teaching strategies
- apply risk management in sports
- apply teaching strategies
- assess students
- assign homework
- assist students in their learning
What stands in the way is 10 required skills the profile does not yet cover. Table 3 groups them; Table 4 says which to take first.
Table 2 · What you already bring
Of the 42 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A physical education teacher secondary school role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a physical education vocational teacher background worth leading with.
- already held biomechanics of sport performance services
- already held develop competitive strategies in sport management skills
- already held sport history arts and humanities
- already held sporting equipment usage services
- already held identify talent management skills
- already held promote balance between rest and activity management skills
All 42 carried skills, including the 23 the physical education teacher secondary school role treats as required.
Table 3 · What you may need to learn
The 24 missing skills fall into 7 areas of the ESCO skill hierarchy, numbered in the order worth working in. Areas carrying the most required skills come first, and inside each one the required skills sit above the optional ones. Nothing here is a verdict on you: it is a list of what this particular job asks for that your current one does not.
