In short, FA coaching badges are the qualifications to become a qualified coach in the UK. The badges currently go from Level 1 to The FA UEFA Pro Licence.

Do FA qualifications expire?

Can you coach football if you never played?
Yes, you do need to have a greater understanding of the game to coach at a higher level (high school or college). Though, it would be extremely rare to be asked to contribute as a head coach at this level anyhow, so the good news is you have plenty of time to gain confidence before you get to that point.
