The Physical Education department at Ebbw Fawr Learning Community is both large and diverse, drawing upon a wealth of expertise and experience from within the immediate department and from academic staff across the school.
Academic PE courses look at developing all aspects of knowledge from the scientific to the sociological. There is certainly a strong influence on personal development with regards to physical fitness, but also in terms of participation and aspirations.
If you enjoy taking part in a variety of sports activities and you have an interest in the theoretical aspects of physical fitness you will enjoy GCSE Physical Education.
The qualification will be useful for gaining entry to higher/further education establishments and for a variety of vocations.
Physical Education is the ideal choice for pupils who are interested in sport, although, excellence in performance is not essential. The developmental nature of the subject at advanced study delivers the Key Skills recognised by UCASE namely communication, improving learning and performance, problem-solving and working with others through this up-to-date, vibrant subject.
Physical Education is a compulsory component of the Welsh Curriculum, taken by all students at Key Stage 3 & 4.
The PE department has access to a wealth of school resources, including Chromebooks, laptops, iPads and iPods.
