Is it too late to change career?

i have decided that i would like to become a PE teacher in secondary schools. Unfortunately i dont have a degree or a GCSE in Maths which i need. I'm 24 right now. How long would it actually take me to complete a GCSE in Maths then do the degree then a PGCE. Would it be worth it if im really old and cannot even move as well as i do now? I'l prob be married with kids in a few years and il be studying too. I want to really do this but just wondering if it's worth the effort?Is it too late to change career?
you didnt mention the country. why not look for PE jobs in your country on google? you will get an idea of the qualifications required. or speak to some PE instructor you know. he might know of some short cuts.Is it too late to change career?
24 is still young. Teachers are in demand (partly due to the crappy nature of teaching in high school in the UK and the poor pay) so if you spend 2/3 years in qualifying then you'll almost certainly find a job at the end of it.



How about Open University to get started and ease yourself back into learning?
