The Adult Who Made Sport Brilliant
Ask any child what they remember about school and, honestly, it's rarely the maths lesson. It's the rainy Tuesday PE lesson that somehow became the highlight of the week. The lunchtime club that had a queue out the door. That's the job. As an Activity Professional with Premier Education, you're the one who turns curriculum PE, extra-curricular clubs, and holiday activity into the bit a child genuinely looks forward to.
A bit about us:
We're trusted by over 1,500 schools nationwide and rated Excellent by more than 25,000 parents, with over 20,000 five-star reviews. When you join Premier Education, you're joining a team that genuinely knows how to do this well, and you'll be properly supported to do the same.
A Day in the Life
Term-time (08:30–16:30):
- You're in at 08:30, kit set up, equipment checked, and a few minutes to build the relationships that make everything easier once the whistle blows.
- Lessons run from around 09:00 to 12:00, taking different classes through curriculum PE.
- Lunchtime is a structured club, fast-paced, fun, and the highlight of the day for plenty of kids.
- Afternoon lessons run 13:00–15:30, then you close out with after-school club from 15:30–16:30.
