Key Stage 4 - BTEC Sport
PE and Sport have a strong reputation at Broadlands Academy.
We offer the BTEC Sport qualification at KS4 and believe it gives a strong foundation for anyone wishing to go on to study sports and training at college and beyond.
The course has four units:
Personal training for fitness
Leadership and coaching
Practical sport
Components of Fitness and Principles of Training
Although you do not get assessed on your practical ability, approximately 50% of the lessons are practical, learning through being physically active rather than in the classroom.
