[senco-forum] a T.A. who is a PE specialist (male)

Don't know if this is relevant but my son (Sports Science Degree +
additional Personal Training qualification but NOT qualified Teacher) has
been employed in various Primary schools for the past couple of years doing
PE lessons so staff can have their non-contact time.  He also does before
and after school clubs (football, circuit training etc). He is paid supply
teacher rates for the lessons and the children's before/after school 'club'
money goes directly to him. He works in a Gym the rest of the time but says
the school work is increasing as people get to hear about him. I think he
might well end up in schools virtually all the time. It pays more than
working in a Gym and he really enjoys it. It might be worth your contact
just approaching schools about doing some clubs etc. He would need to check
insurance etc but there haven't been any problems for my son.

We have a great guy who comes in and does 'boxercise' with the year 11s -
they love it and he is a really great guy -  he fancies a career change. 
He has asked if there are such things as P.E. specialist T.A.s - what
qualifications they would need and how to go about finding such a job.
I thought someone out there might know.
I suggested approaching special school in the area
Any ides welcome
