Our offer for GCSE (9-1) Physical Education

This practical and engaging course has been developed after feedback from teachers and other key stakeholders, ensuring an inclusive specification that will allow all students to achieve their potential.

At OCR we offer a qualification with a straightforward structure and clear focused content. We introduce students to a wide range of topics and concepts enabling them to fully experience the subject which gives a good clear basis for those who wish to build on this at AS or A Level.

Students are encouraged to engage with different sports and activities as well as their own specialist areas, thereby developing their understanding and knowledge of the world of sport and how to improve their own performance and fitness.

We also offer clear examination papers, two one-hour papers worth 60 marks each, alongside the NEA where students complete three sports and one performance analysis tasks.

We offer plenty of support. Practice papers, mark schemes and candidate exemplars, as well as resources for teaching and learning and CPD course bookings are all available on Teach Cambridge. We also offer free subject specialist support to all centres via our subject advisor team.
