A-Level Physical EducationBackground information about studying Physical EducationHow will it differ from GCSE?DifficultyWorkloadRequired Individual StudyHow is it assessed?ExamsFor AQA there is one exam each year in June. This makes up 60% of your final grade. CourseworkFor AQA there is no longer a written coursework section like the training programme at GCSE. PracticalsPractical Coursework at A level is taken much more seriously than at GCSE, much more video evidence is needed, and you really have to be strong in your sport for high marks (at least participating once a week outside of school/college) and at A2 it needs to be at a competitive level (AQA) however this can be 'got around' by using a mock competitive sitution if necessary. For AQA the practical coursework is 40% of your final grade. For AS you are assessed in 2 areas. These can be any mix of performing, officiating and coaching in almost any sport of your choice and they don't have to be the same. eg.. - Netball Performing & Badminton Officiating - Horse Riding Coaching & Football Performing - Tennis Officiating & Tennis Performing - Hockey Performing & Rugby Performing (Performing is the only discipline you can choose twice.) For A2 you choose to focus on one area. This does not have to be one you did for A2. This year the coursework requires more detail into the analysis of your performance.
