Where Does this Take Me in the Future?

Physical Education:

We pride ourselves in not only developing the physical skills of our students but developing personal qualities that will aid them when they leave Tollbar Academy. They experience working with others to achieve a common goal while learning about the body and the importance of exercise. The skills and knowledge we hope to develop are:

• Communication
• Teamwork
• Problem Solving
• Personal Responsibility
• Knowledge of Health and Fitness
• Literacy and Numeracy

By offering GCSE Physical Education to students we also give them the first step to a variety of higher education courses and possible careers. Having completed a GCSE in Physical Education students can go on to:

• Study Physical Education or Sports Studies in Higher Education
• Numerous university degrees and Masters courses including Sport
• Science, Teaching (PE) and Physiotherapy
• A career in teaching, physiotherapy, sport science, sports coaching, personal training, biomechanics, sport psychology and nutrition.
