The Sports Science and Advanced Research A-Level pathway is a two-year programme designed to run in collaboration with other A-level choices.  It develops the vocational skills and knowledge base of learners who have a keen interest in the science of sport but are keen to take their studies on to university. You will study in both practical and theoretical settings to understand advanced concepts in areas such as anatomy, physiology and psychology. You will also develop your skills in maths and English, which will support your main programme of study, help your future progression and enhance your life skills.
