The Diploma in Children’s Fitness

What is the Diploma?

This is a higher achievement in knowledge and skills than the Level 2 qualification alone.

Whilst a qualified instructor will provide opportunities for enjoyment and achievement in ‘mainstream’ children, it is a leader with the Diploma that can develop valuable qualities in all children and reassure parents and employers that they are committed to good coaching practice and children’s development and welfare.

This Diploma is made up of individual courses and workshops. The details of these can be found in the prospectus.
It recognizes your achievements in:

• Good Practice and Responsible Coaching
• The Safeguarding and Protecting of Children and Young People
• Paediatric First Aid
• Understanding Child Behaviour
• Physical Activity for ALL Children
• And commitment to examining your own practice and ongoing CPD

If you already have evidence of any of the above mentioned training with another training provider (within the last year) this will be included as prior achievement.

What are the entry requirements?

You need to hold a Level 2 qualification in Teaching Physical Activity to Children or in Playwork in order to achieve this Diploma status.
