Wordpress and PHP

I'm about to start learning wordpress and just wondered if it would be vastly beneficial to go through a PHP track first. What are people's thoughts?

Thanks

It is very beneficial if you want to change the theme you're using or want to add some custom functionality to your CMS. A lot of functionality can be added through php. Decent knowledge of javascript can come in very handy.
