A Physical Education (PE) A Level is not just about playing sport, it is the understanding of how the body and mind work, about how politics affects participation, about striving for perfection. Sport and fitness is a huge industry and studying for an A Level in Physical Education could be your first step towards a sports-related career. This will be a two-year course with the external examination sat at the end of Year 13. An assessment will be sat at the end of Year 12, which will be externally marked, but will not constitute an external AS grade.
GCSE PE would be useful but not essential. An average GCSE Science at grade of 5 or above is a minimum requirement to study the course due to the scientific nature of some of the modules. All students on this course will gain the knowledge and skills necessary to study sport at degree or higher education level. An ongoing active and involvement in competitive sport however is a must.
