Studying Physical Education will help you to develop the skills, knowledge and competencies to live healthy and physically active lives. The course provides a solid foundation for further studies relating to movement and the body, including the social and health sciences, recreation and tourism. Throughout the course you will understand how physiological and psychological states affect performance and the key socio-cultural factors that influence people’s involvement in sport and physical activity. You will refine your ability in one chosen activity by developing skills, techniques and the use of selecting and applying tactics and strategies to enhance performance or compositional ideas. Within lessons you will develop as an effective independent learner, and a reflective thinker with a curious and enquiring mind.
Entry into the Sixth Form is dependent upon ability and attitude, together with a minimum of five GCSE passes at Grade 5, or higher, including English and Mathematics, a Headteacher’s report and personal interview. Some subjects may require higher grades for entry to A Level.
