This course is designed for learners who are looking for a hands-on, activity-based Physical Education experience. It is 100% practical, with a strong focus on participation and developing a wide range of motor skills through engaging and varied physical activities.

Learners will spend the year in practical environments, working on improving their movement skills and overall physical performance. Assessment is based on a selection of practical Achievement Standards, which recognise consistent, high-quality performance across a range of physical activities, as well as the ability to work effectively as part of a team.

Important Note:
This course is ideal for learners who enjoy being active and learning through movement. However, it is not recommended for those who intend to take the full academic Physical Education course in future years, as it does not cover the theoretical components required for progression.
