Physical Education AS Level

UPDATED 20160617 08:56:11

This course will become linear from September 2016 and the A Level qualification is achieved at the end of the second year. Within the UK, sports-related occupations are growing in number as the industry expands and diversifies. To reflect this, the Physical Education course is wide-ranging in its subject matter and offers students the chance to develop skills and knowledge of areas relating to sport such as the body, fitness, psychology and physical performance. Students may go on to study a degree in Physical Education or Sports Science or into sport-related employment. For many occupations including the various forces, Physical Education is a well-recognised and respected course. Previous students now include a qualified doctor and several physiotherapists. Students take two modules in each year which involve a mixture of examinations, coursework and practical assessments. At AS level Module 1 involves a two hour exam paper covering anatomy and physiology, acquiring movement skills and socio-cultural studies. In Module 2 the student?s ability to perform, coach or officiate in two sports is assessed as is their ability to evaluate a performance.
