The course aims to : • Develop knowledge, understanding and skills in a range of physical activities; • Understand factors that impinge on their performance and participation; • Observe, analyse and evaluate performance as thoughtful participants and intelligent performers; • Improve their own and other peoples’ performance; • Develop critical appreciation of historical, social, cultural, and moral contexts that give meaning to participation and performance in physical activity. The coursework concentrates on the individual and how he or she can develop their own performance in a range of activities. We develop our understanding of human performance through, anatomy, physiology, biomechanics, training, and fitness theory. We discover how sport has influenced society through historical studies, and social issues such as private schools, industrialisation, professionalism, drug use in sport, race, gender, role-models, and lifestyle.
Evidence of achievement in Physical Education, typically a pass grade at GCSE.
This is a linear course, examined at the end of the two years.
