The Level 3 Extended Certificate in Sport and Physical Activity at Westlands is not just about being able to play sport; it will provide you with the skills, knowledge and understanding to progress onto University level sport-related programmes such as Sport and Physical Education, Sport Science, Sports Coaching and Development or Sport and Leisure Management.
Students will develop their subject knowledge of many aspects of the sporting world, covering every aspect of sport, health and fitness, as well as gain practical experience in coaching younger children and performing fitness tests and training methods.
Students should have a genuine interest in sport as much of the course will involve linking the theory learnt through sporting examples. Students will not be directly assessed on their sporting ability. However, there are practical elements of the course that require students to be motivated, enthusiastic, and able to regularly participate in practical lessons and able to consistently meet coursework deadlines.
Students will require a grade 5 in GCSE PE or a Merit in Level 2 BTEC Sport.
