Physical Education / Sports Studies

Course summary

This course follows on from the GCSE programme of study (although this is not a pre-requisite for choosing the course) by enabling students to enhance and deepen their knowledge of leading a healthy and active lifestyle. The content of the course is designed to enable students to enjoy and understand the benefits of living a healthy and active lifestyle in all its aspects, including the body, mind and society. It provides a route to studying a Sport course at a Higher Education establishment which could lead to career opportunities in the sports industry. Please note that all lessons are classroom based. Occasionally, we will use practical application to aid the understanding of theoretical concepts.
