What You'll Do: 

Evolve Sports Academy is an alternate provision that gives students aged 11-16 the chance to learn through sport. Students complete maths, English, and Sport Leadership lessons designed to incorporate sport. Students also have the opportunity to play various different sports throughout the day, working with current and ex-pro athletes. You will work alongside Evolve Sports Academy's teachers and coaches to help motivate students to achieve their potential. Opportunities will arise for you to take drills and sessions and work with students more extensively as the placement goes on. You will be given a mentor who will train you whilst here and answer any questions you have.

Why You'll Love It: 
The chance to be involved with sport in a working environment, work with excellent staff, and play and coach sport with children.
What You'll Learn: 
You will be able to develop your teaching, coaching, and communication skills by observing our staff and then having a go yourself if you feel confident enough. 
What We're Looking For: 
Someone who has a passion for sport and is interested in becoming a teacher or sports coach.
