Diplomas in either Sport Coaching or Sport and Outdoor Activities supporting careers in sport, the active leisure industry and outdoor education.
A practical, career-focused qualification that combines academic study with hands-on experience, preparing pupils for university, apprenticeships and careers in the sport and active leisure industry.
BTEC courses are designed for pupils who want to combine knowledge with practical application. Through coursework, projects, practical assessments and real-world scenarios, you’ll learn how to apply what you know, develop your skills and take greater ownership of your learning.
At Malvern College, our BTEC pathways give you the opportunity to build a strong foundation for further study, apprenticeships or employment in the sports and outdoor sectors.
BTEC assessment is based around coursework, practical projects and applied learning rather than a final written examination. Depending on the pathway, you could be developing a coaching session, working with participants, planning an outdoor activity, managing risk or exploring how sport can support health, wellbeing and inclusion.
BTEC assessment is based around internally assessed coursework, practical assessments and projects.
There is no final written examination.
Throughout the Diploma, pupils develop transferable skills that are valued by universities and employers, including:
A BTEC isn’t just about what you learn during the course. It’s about where that learning can take you next. Whether your ambition is to coach, lead, explore, work in sport or progress to university, our BTEC pathways give you the opportunity to develop practical skills and the confidence to take your next step.
