Sport Studies

Entry Requirements

If you choose PE we will decide which course is best suited for you, so that you can achieve the highest grade possible. The GCSE PE is more suited to pupils who are very good practically, Scientifically and good in exams. The Sport Studies course is more suited to pupils who are better at doing coursework than examinations. Both courses are very similar and they are worth the same as any other GCSE. This course builds on the knowledge, understanding and skills established in Key Stage 3 Physical Education. It will give you exciting opportunities to be involved in a number of different physical activities, promoting an active and healthy lifestyle as well as coaching opportunities.
