Level 2 Physical Education
Course Description
Teacher in Charge: Mr A. Akroyd.
This course allows students to participate in a wide variety of learning activities which are covered in both class and practical settings. Learning activities range from personal development (fitness-based), exploring how methods and principles of training can improve our performance (sport) and an in depth look and focus on the roles that muscles and biomechanics play in skill development (sport). Activities that have been covered in this course range from traditional sports (volleyball & tag) to team-based games (physical challenges). However, each year activities are chosen collectively as a group - so student choice is a priority.
