The aim of this research was to  \nidentify students’, completing the Victorian Certificate of Education  \n(VCE) Physical Education, perceptions of teacher-related factors that  \ninfluence subject specific academic performance. Unit 3 and 4 VCE  \nPhysical Education students (n = 23) from three government  \nsecondary schools and one independent secondary school in Victoria, Australia completed poster annotations identifying their perception of the ‘perfect’ VCE Physical Education teacher. The de-identified data  \nfrom the posters were transcribed verbatim, coded and analysed  \nusing NVivo software to explore student perceptions of teacher  \nrelated factors that influence academic performance. Emergent  \nthemes from the poster annotations suggested that student’s  \nperceptions of the ‘perfect’ VCE Physical Education teacher included  \nthe teacher-related factors of knowledge (of subject matter), verbal  \nability, caring, enthusiasm and teacher accessibility.  \nIntroduction  \nAn understanding of the teacher-related factors that affect student academic performance in senior-secondary physical education may lead to improved academic outcomes for students in senior-secondary physical education courses. Research into seniorsecondary physical education is limited, and that which has been conducted has focussed on the analysis of the senior-secondary physical education curriculum documentation, it’s implementation (Thorburn & Collins, 2006a; MacPhail, 2007; Bowes & Bruce, 2011; SueSee & Edwards, 2011; Brown & Penney, 2012) and assessment (Thorburn & Collins, 2006b; Penney, Jones, Newhouse, & Cambell, 2012) . What remains unclear is the specific teacherrelated factors that influence student achievement in senior-secondary physical education. Successful performance in senior-secondary education, as demonstrated in the assessment of learning for certification, is a key enabler for young people to transition into further education, training or employment (Curtain, 2001; Pinquart, Juang, & Silbereisen, 2003) . The Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE), administered by the Victorian Curriculum and Assessment Authority (VCAA), is one of three post-compulsory pathways available to students in their final two years of secondary schooling in Victoria, Australia; with the majority, 83%(VCAA, 2013a) of students selecting this course for their senior-secondary certificate.
