What the college says
Our Level 3 Cambridge Technicals in Sport and Physical Activity qualifications help your students to achieve their potential and progress to the next stage of their lives, whether that’s higher education, an apprenticeship or employment. We have designed refreshing and exciting content that’s up to date, engaging, fit for purpose and suitable for the needs of your students. To do this, we’ve consulted with universities, employers and industry specialists to make sure your students will gain the right combination of knowledge, understanding and skills required for the 21st century. A wide range of centre assessed units with practical and wider project-based assessment opportunities, as well as examined units on the body systems and the long and short term impacts of sport and physical activity; how sport is organised and the purpose of sports development; health and safety requirements in sport and physical activity; the purpose of, and how to conduct research in sport and physical activity; and how businesses in sport are organised and what success looks like to them. Dependent on the size chosen the qualifications either complement a Key Stage 5 study programme alongside other specific vocational qualifications or A Levels, or may make up the bulk of a two-year study programme. Our diplomas have vocational pathways within them that students can follow (one pathway must be achieved).
