Course Details

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.

Why Study Physical Education at Worcester Sixth Form College?

At Worcester Sixth Form College our PE course is consistently rated in the top 10% nationally for exam results. We have strong links with previous students enjoying successful careers in the sports industry.

Having these inspirational guest speakers who have benefited from the course acts as huge motivation for our current students, with many choosing to study Physical Education at a higher level. On top of this we are regular visitors to prestigious sports institutions such as Cardiff Metropolitan University.

It is expected that you will be actively involved in a competitive sport and you will have the chance to develop your practical skills outside of lessons, hopefully as part of one of our sports academies.

Flipped learning is a central feature of A Level Physical Education with students receiving an innovative podcast to make notes from prior to the lesson. Lessons will focus on actively embedding and applying information from the podcasts to real life sporting performance.
