If you are in the Uk take A levels in Biology, PE and Psychology.
Go to Uni and get a Sports Science degree and then do a years Post grad with QTS. (That is if you want to teach in secondary schools)
If you want to teach in junior schools do the same A levels and do a B Ed degree with PE as your main subject but be aware that you will have to become professionally competent in almost all subjects to be able to teach them all.
P.E and biology would help for a starters and then a PGCE at uni level, however it is important to know that it is very competitive being a P.E teacher since there are so many now, therefore it's worthwhile to keep options open. Good Luck.x
The first thing is that you have to be really fit.. And look good in shorts, because dont forget you will be wearing them for the rest of your life. Also I think that you have to shave all of your body hair off, but not sure about the last one cause it could have been a dream i had last night
You will have to take the P.E. option when you choose your courses and your careers officer will tell you what you will need to do. You will need to go to college and then to university- my neice qualified by the time she was 21- she got a job in a boys school teaching teenagers PE- and she hated it!

Talk to an academic advisor. It's free at any university or college campus.

the best way to become a PE teacher is to NOT concentrate in school.
Try going for a sport coaching degree from university.
I believe that you get a degree in general education with your emphasis being in physical education.
Study and don't be afraid to be physical.
Sell your soul to the devil.
