The Arsenal Student: Coach Education

Arsenal in the Community The Arsenal Student

The coach education element to our post-16 courses has been meticulously designed to provide our students with the unique opportunity to cultivate essential skills and attain qualifications spanning various aspects of the sports world, be it coaching and teaching, officiating, or performance support. 

Our students will actively engage in weekly practical coach education sessions and gain invaluable work experience, all facilitated by FA and UEFA-certified football coaches. Our curriculum is aligned with the FA’s England DNA philosophy, ensuring a seamless progression for our students as they undertake FA Qualifications. 

Throughout the course, work experience assumes a pivotal role in the holistic development of our students. Some of the exciting opportunities that past students have pursued include: 

•Involvement in Disability Sport 

•Participation in Social Inclusion initiatives

•Contribution to Football Development Programmes

•Integration with primary and secondary schools’ PE curriculum

•Insight into the Academy Talent Identification 

This programme opens doors to a world of possibilities, where students can not only learn but actively contribute to the diverse area of community and elite-level sport, becoming well-rounded individuals with a deep understanding of the field they are passionate about.
