Physical Education

Assessment

Students will be assessed through a variety of formative and summative ways. The external assessment is based on two theory papers (35% each) and the practical assessment (15%) is completed through the ‘Non-examined assessment’ (NEA) component of the course, along with the written coursework (the ‘Performance Analysis’, also worth 15%). Internal assessment will be maintained through: extended answer exam questions, formally assessed end of topic tests, interactive quizzes, peer questioning/marking, homework & research tasks, ‘check your understanding’ sections in the text book and end of unit text book questions. Practical performance will be discussed regularly and informally monitored. Students will be responsible for the filming of their practical evidence, which will be completed outside of lesson time. You will also complete transition examinations at the end of year 12.
