What the college says

If you are considering a course in sport or physical education at university and anticipate pursuing a career in either, then studying A Level PE will provide you with a sound base. As well as an in depth theory element, you will be able to develop your practical skills in a range of sporting roles. The close link between the theory and the practical elements of the course will help you to develop your own performance as well as your ability to observe, analyse and correct other performers in a variety of physical activities. Our A Level Physical Education qualification allows students to play to their strengths and gain dynamic theoretical and practical skills for further education or work.
