PE200

Level 2 Physical Education

Although next year timetables are yet to be finalised, course selection is now finished. Any changes to student courses will now take place in January.

Course Description

Teacher in Charge: Dalton Letawsky.

PE200

What we learn about in PE200 is based on the interests of the students taking the class. Each year the students will be asked, what they would like to learn and what they are interested in and the course will be designed to meet the needs of the students as much as possible. In all cases the course will have as much practical work in as possible and theoretical concepts will be learnt, wherever possible, by doing instead or just sitting writing. 


This means that each year will be different to the year before.

Possible topics to be studied are:
Planning, managing and leading events
Leadership and coaching
How to develop training programmes
Understanding group and team dynamics
Current sports events and their affect on society
Practical sports performance
Sports psychology and skill learning
