Trampolining for Teachers Award

The Trampolining for teachers award (as the name suggests) is a qualification for teacher to allow them to teach trampolining in schools. The course is of the same level as The Trampoline Coach award above. The differences are that the Teachers award doesn't include the common core module, and also you are not required to be a member of BG to take this course. This course is only open to qualified PE teachers, or teachers who already hold a BG qualification (such as gymnastics coach). This is to ensure that the common core module knowledge is covered.

The trampolining for teachers course is also provided by Connect Sports Consultants. They provide three one-day courses which together are the equivalent of the trampolining for teachers award. Please see their website to view the courses. You will need to take trampolining 1, 2 then 3 to gain the whole qualification, however each course standas alone and gives you a level of qualification.
