Physical Education A level offers the opportunity to develop an understanding and appreciation of the factors which affect participation and performance. It suits those who have enjoyed the study of GCSE Physical Education and can complement other A-level choices such as Biology and other science-based subjects, Psychology and History. It is particularly valuable for those thinking of embarking on a degree in teaching, physiotherapy, medicine, sports therapy, sports psychology, sports development and leisure management.
- A minimum of a grade 6 overall in GCSE Physical Education is expected. If PE is not taken at GCSE there needs to be evidence of extensive sporting activity and a grade 6 in Biology or a grade 6 in Science and Additional Science (with a 6 in the Biology component). The specifications have a significant practical element and a genuine interest in sport is needed in order to be successful. - At least eight GCSEs (including English (Language or Literature) and Mathematics at a minimum of Grade 6)
