Why Study Physical Education?
This fascinating course is aimed at broadening learners understanding of the science behind sports performance. It looks at Physical Education from both a theoretical and practical perspective and there is a strong focus on the academic aspects of the course.
There are three main theory units:
Applied Anatomy and Physiology
Psychological Factors Affecting Performance
Socio-Cultural Issues
Additionally, practical performance in a sporting activity is an essential requirement. The practical assessment contains performance within a competitive environment and a verbal evaluation and analysis of performance.
