In addition, candidates will gain experience of performing a variety of activities chosen from different activity profiles. Candidates will also gain experience in coaching and officiating the activities so as to develop their understanding and appreciation of the coaching points, skills, rules and the application of tactics associated with their chosen activities. H555/01: Physiological factors affecting performance H555/02: Psychological factors affecting performance H555/03: Socio-cultural issues in physical activity and sport.

There are no specific requirements for GCE Physical Education, however a Grade A or B in Biology would be a distinct advantage. Level 5-9 GCSE grade would be recommended. An obvious background and interest in sport is essential but furthermore a high level of sporting representation would give a distinct advantage. Although this subject has practical elements a considerable proportion of its content is theoretically based (70%) covering a variety of inter-related disciplines.
