If you have a passion for sport and are potentially considering a career in the sport, health and leisure industries, then this is the course for you. You will study a range of units from anatomy and physiology through to practical sports performance, each one designed to develop new skills and knowledge. Specialising in the study of sport is an option as you can enrol onto the BTEC Extended Diploma in Sport (14 units). Alternatively, you can study sport alongside other subject choices by enrolling onto either the Extended Certificate (equivalent to 1 A-level) or the Diploma (equivalent to 2 A-levels) courses. You will be assessed through a combination of coursework, examinations and controlled assessments. Coursework is assignments on practical tasks based on workplace scenarios. Controlled assessments are again tasks based on workplace settings, but completed in realistic, time-based situations. Examinations are tests on specific course content.
