Leaving Cert PE

Term 2:

We studied Leaving Cert PE with Mr. Noonan in term 2. Since this is a new subject is was a great chance for me to get an idea of what it's like. LC PE is like a science subject , except it involves a lot about coaching and the body. I think it's great for people interested in coaching teams or thinking about studying sport science, physiotherapy and courses like that.

I found it very interesting

We all:

• Learned about the structure of the exam

  • • 50% - written exam

    • 20% - project

    • 30% - performance assessment

• We did our own "Performance Assessment"

  • • Focused on javelin throw

    • Filled in an information sheet about it

    • Made a video explaining the key teaching points

    • Worth 30% of marks in exam
