BTEC offers students the opportunity to achieve A-Level equivalent qualifications that are work-related and vocational. The principle difference between A-Level and BTEC is the method of assessment. Assessment is done through a range of presentations, case studies, practical tasks, written assignments and external assessment. For each assessment, you will be graded a Pass, Merit or Distinction. Students continually know where they are and what they need to do to improve their grade. Much of the content is similar to the A-Level in PE. Sport and Exercise Science is a theory-based course and although some aspects of the course can be taught in a practical way, students should be prepared to be classroom-based for most of their lessons. The staff will endeavour to vary the teaching style used and allow for opportunities to learn actively whenever possible.
To access the Vocational Pathway you will have achieved 5 GCSEs at grade 4 (or vocational course at Merit) which needs to include GCSE Maths and English (Literature or Language).
