Physical Education

Course summary

This course provides a natural progression for candidates who have studied GCSE Physical Education but should not be discounted by students who have not previously studied PE but have a strong interest in the subject. It provides a balanced and broad based course, worthwhile in its own right as well as a transition for those intending to study courses at a Higher Education level in areas not necessarily related to Physical Education. This subject works particularly well with: Sciences (Biology, Physics or Chemistry), History, Geography, Statistics, Technology, Psychology, and Dance. Students will be expected to participate in sport regularly in their own time either as a performer or a coach. The PE Department has outstanding facilities including two designated theory classrooms with ICT facilities, four badminton court sports hall, dance studio, gymnasium, full size astroturf and a state of the art fitness studio.
