Department. Why study BTEC Sport?
The Pearson BTEC National Extended Certificate in Sport is intended to be an applied general qualification for post-16 learners who want to continue their education through applied learning and who aim to progress to one A-level. The content of this qualification has been developed in consultation with academics to ensure that it supports progression to higher education.
Employers and professional bodies have been involved and consulted to confirm that the content of this course is appropriate and consistent with current practice for learners who may choose to enter employment directly in the sport sector.
What could this qualification lead to?
The qualification carries UCAS points and is recognised by higher education providers because it meets admission requirements for many courses if taken, alongside other qualifications, as part of a two-year programme of study. It combines well with a number of subjects and supports entry to higher education courses in a wide range of disciplines.
What will I learn? Students will study three mandatory content areas: Anatomy and Physiology
Fitness Training and Programming for Health, Sport and Well- being Professional Development in the Sports Industry
Students will also choose one optional unit from a range that has been designed to support choices in progression to sport courses in higher education, and to link with relevant occupational areas.
A-level Assessment Assessment is specifically designed to fit the purpose and objective of the
40
qualification. It includes a range of assessment types and styles suited to vocational qualifications in the sport sector. There are three main forms of assessment: external, internal and synoptic.
