This course will be useful for students with a genuine interest in Sport who wish to study the theory behind the practical side of PE and the fitness industry. It is particularly useful for those who are thinking of a career in PE teaching, physiotherapy, Sports Science, personal trainer or being involved in the Leisure and Recreation industry. GCSE PE is desirable but not essential. It should be stressed that this is essentially an academic subject and not purely a practical one. The following topics are indicative of what is studied in A Level Physical Education: Physiological Factors Affecting Performance: This focuses on the key systems of the human body involved in movement and physical activity. Psychological Factors Affecting Performance: This component focuses on the psychological factors affecting physical activity and sports performance. We will look at models and theories that affect learning, how different methods of training and feedback work. Socio-cultural and Contemporary Issues:This component includes the emergence and evolution of modern sport, the modern Olympic Games, the ever-evolving modern technology and its influence on sports performance.
