Sports Studies

Entry Requirements

Students must be passionate about sport and physical activity and have an interest in the theory components of the subject, such as sports psychology, sports physiology and sport in society. Students will be assessed in one team sport and one individual sport as part of the course. Therefore regular participation in at least one of these outside of school is important. Cambridge National Sports Studies at a Merit grade or above, or GCSE PE (Sport Science) at grade 4 or above is desirable but not essential. Pupils need to be fully committed to the course and confident in their abilities to coach younger students as part of an assessment.
