DH wanting to be secondary PE teacher

Hi all,
My DH is a primary school teacher and wants to explore going into secondary PE. He has a PE gcse and some coaching qualifications and it's generally very knowledgeable about sport. All of this as well as QTS which actually qualifies him as a teacher. Is this enough or would he need to re train?

Thanks!

No, QTS is transferable between phases so he won't need to retrain.

That's not to say that getting a post will be easy. PE is one of the few subjects not in shortage and with recruitment restrictions to new entrants. He's likely to miss out to others with more direct school experience.

Are you in an authority with a half term offset to a neighbouring authority where he can do some shadowing?
