Applied Sport

Assessment

There are three mandatory units; Unit 1 and Unit 2, plus Unit 3 Sports Organisation and Development that’s assessed by a 60 minute written exam made up of short or long answer questions. Your students also choose either two or three units from a selection of nine optional units that are all internally assessed through coursework. Several units will be taught over the two years of the course with both internal and external assessments. The external assessments are written papers Unit 1 - body systems and the effects of physical activity Unit 3 – Sports organisation and development. The final mandatory unit 2 is sports coaching and activity leadership and is internally assessed. After these three units there is one optional unit that must be completed, and there is a choice of four. The unit that is chosen will depend on the dynamics of the group that begin the course.
