This specification builds on the student's experience from Key Stage 4 and GCSE to enhance their knowledge and increase their understanding of the factors that affect performance and participation in physical education. The qualification looks to equip students with skills and knowledge required for higher education or the world of work. The content of the course includes areas such as anatomy/physiology, skill acquisition, biomechanics, sports psychology and technology in sport. The content of the AS & A level Physical Education specification is designed to follow on from GCSE Physical Education, enabling a smooth transition from one to the other. The course gives students the opportunities to gain credit towards their A Level from talents and skills in their favourite sport. Students have gone on to study at university in a wide range of careers including PE and the Sport Sciences, the health professions (including Medicine and Physiotherapy) as well as many other wide ranging careers in combination with other subjects.
