Day to Day Role

A typical full day would involve an afternoon session at a school or at Pre-school, followed by an after school club, then some sessions at club.

At the school sessions there would be two teachers to work with who will have different programme requirements dependent on their own level of experience and training (often referred to as ITT- Initial Teacher Training and CPD – Continuous Personal Development). Once a programme has been established on week one, the coach would either work to a set of curriculum based lesson plans.

At the end of a half term period the coach would have a weeks holiday and then once the schools re-commenced, would start a new set of programmes with a new set of schools.

In the club, a level 2 coach (minimum) is required to help continue to development of the gymnasts. Working with girls grades level gymnasts, boys competition squad, regional floor and vault champions as well as opportunities to work with the recreational squads.
