Entry requirements

It is not a requirement that you should have studied Physical Education at GCSE level in order to take an A Level course in this subject. Several topics, however, covered in the course are developments of work covered at GCSE but others are new. Grade 6 or above in GCSE PE or a science would be highly beneficial.
