BTEC Sport
“Excellence is the gradual result of always striving to do better” - Pat Riley, three-time NBA Coach of the Year
Sport is an ever-developing subject area and the BTEC Diploma allows students to explore the full breadth of this field, whilst also developing employability skills. The course is all about learning by doing and putting what is learned into practice straight away. This vocational course is equivalent to two A Level subjects and students are assessed throughout the course rather than through terminal examinations. BTEC Sport students should select this option alongside one A Level choice.
