Aesthetic and expressive activities — such as dance and gymnastics — are an essential part of the Physical Education curriculum, helping learners build creativity, body awareness, and confidence. 

This 6-week, Level 8 micro-credential is designed for students preparing to teach Physical Education and looking to fulfil curriculum requirements in this key area. 

You’ll explore how to design and deliver inclusive, safe, and engaging activities that support learners’ physical and expressive development. 

You’ll learn through a blend of online materials and a practical, on-campus workshop. You’ll study key curriculum models, performance evaluation, and inclusive teaching strategies while developing your own physical literacy and teaching confidence. 

This module can be taken as a standalone micro-credential or as part of a pathway to a larger award.
