PrerequisitesApproval by HoD
This course builds upon concepts and information taught in Level 1 Physical Education.
This course provides a clear pathway for students who thrive in practical, hands-on learning environments. While it reduces academic writing, it will still equip students with fundamental knowledge of sports principles, goal setting, personal health and teamwork skills, which are valuable for various vocational pathways in the sport and recreation industry, or simply for enriched personal lives. This can lead to opportunities to be a Personal Trainer, Gym Instructor, Coach, Sports Co-Ordinator for a school, club or regional/national body.
Students will attempt 16 credits throughout the year. These are a mixture of NCEA level 2 achievement standards and level 3 unit standard credits.
Students must wear the schools GC PE T-shirt and GC black shorts for every class (correct sports shoes are preferred over bare feet).
