The standards are changing.  Very recently, you simply needed a Bachelors degree in Physical Therapy.  Today, the new standard is the Masters of Physical Therapy, but by the time you get through the program, they will have moved up to requiring the Ph.D. in Physical Therapy.  You've got a lot of education ahead of you!

whatever u know and love... do that... you should do what you think you would do best. if you like art, i would recommend art therapy. you could also simply major in psychology.\n it's all about what makes u you. \ni would suggest that you pick something that suits your needs. \nif u like something, go with that. don't pick the thing that someone tells you to just b/c they think that is what you should do and what you would make money with. do what makes you happy = ]

You need to get either a master's degree or doctorate in clinical psychology, social work, or counseling.  A lot of them offer classes in play therapy, child psychopathology, etc.  Some people are certified play therapists- I don't know if that makes you more qualified or not.  Here is the website for the Association for Play Therapy.

Go for science. For one thing, you can make more money and there are many more opportunities. I was a chemist for about six years before going on for more education and the pay was good, the hours good and the people wonderfully intelligent and fun to work with. You're too young to limit yourself by foregoing serious education for something like massage. While that may be a good career choice if you've tried more intellectual pursuits and found you didn't like them, I wouldn't start there. Keep it as a backup if the science thing doesn't work out for you. Plus, the hours, working conditions and pay are much less for massage therapists than folks with a science background. (I have a friend who teaches at a massage therapy school, so I'm familiar with the lifestyle.) Good luck.

There is a metaphysical connection - body/mind/spirit.  In order to develop and grow, it is necessary to tend to all spheres of influence.\n\nPhysical education provides the obvious - muscle toning, education and information about body development and wellness.  It also provides invaluable social skills.  What you learn in physical education will assist you with team building and general public interaction.  This is particularly important in today's world where so many of us are computer people and have limited face to face exposure.

This field includes physical therapists, counselors, and occupational therapists. Occupational therapists help people with conditions or disabilities improve in their daily lives.\n\nTraining is necessary to become an occupational therapist. This training can be received at a school, college, or university. In addition to a diploma or certification, a license may also be needed in some states.\n\nThe job outlook should be good. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (www.bls.gov), employment of occupational therapists is expected to increase through 2012. For more information, try the American Occupational Therapy Association website at www.aota.org.

you do not have to be an MD, but you do have to go to school.  My mom is an acupuncturist and I watched her attend classes, take exams, etc.  It's hard work, but if it's what you want to do, it's worth it.

Check out Chester University. That's where I went. It's very pretty and middle class.\nRemember in UK you do not need a university education to teach at nursery level you only need a vocational course. Unless you want to study education for pre-school children in which case I could suggest a degree in developmental psychology instead.\nIf you have a vocational qualification in pre-school education from another country it should count in your favour to get work in this field in Britain.

Physical therapy (also known as physiotherapy) is a health profession concerned with the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of disease and disability through physical means. It is based upon principles of medical science, and is generally held to be within the sphere of conventional (rather than alternative) medicine. Physiotherapy is practiced by physiotherapists (also known as physical therapists, e.g. in the United States), though aspects may also be practiced under supervised delegation by physiotherapy assistants or other health professionals.

Education requirements for WHAT?

If you want to be a teacher you have to do a teaching course, either that or do the child care course then a PG Dip to allow you to teach.  If you are not sure what course is right for you, you should speak to the admissions dept at the college who can tell you more about the course entry requirements and couse contents, also ask if you can speak to a careers advisor who will be able to help.  If you got A & B grades for your highers/A levels then you could go to university and do your course there.  The careers advisor at the college would be a good starting point though. Good luck.
