Course Overview
This course is designed as an introduction to the Sport and Public Services sectors. Students will develop basic skills within the mandatory units, which will help them day-to-day. In area-specific units students will take part in Active Sports, Coaching Roles and Practical Fitness including Outdoor Activities.

Industry experts will share their knowledge and experience of working within the Public Service.

Literacy and numeracy development will be a core focus for all learners on programme with each learner having the opportunity to undertake Essential Skills Wales qualifications in Communication and Application of Number, or resit GCSEs in Maths and English.

Learners will be assigned a Progress Coach who will support them throughout their time on programme. They will ensure that any ALN support is put in place before learners start and that any new support needs that may arise are incorporated into their programme to help them to succeed. The course is fully supported to meet individual needs and learning differences.

The programme is delivered over three days and will be a mixture of classroom and practical indoor and outdoor delivery.
Written assessments, presentations, planning and organising, and observations.
4 GCSEs at grade E/2 or above including English Language or Welsh (1st Language) and Maths
