Physical Education AS Level

UPDATED 20170110 14:10:47

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. As a department we pride ourselves on the facilities and quality of teaching we offer. Used within Physical Education lessons are the College?s sports hall, tartan athletics track, astroturf, tennis courts, netball courts and numerous football and rugby pitches, and the College has access to a swimming pool within walking distance. In this course teaching methodologies will be based around active learning for student engagement. There will be a wide variety of tasks allowing all students to access high grades. In recent years results have been exceptionally high nationally with A2 students gaining over a whole grade higher than GCSE grades predict. 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.
