Level 3 Sport Development Coaching
“I originally studied A Levels but I found it very difficult to balance studying different subjects whilst working part-time as well. This course has been so much better for me as it’s concentrated solely on one subject so I’ve been able to give it my full attention. It’s mainly coursework based too which is a perfect fit for someone like me who just doesn’t get on well with exams.
The tutors never fail to give you support when you need it. They always help out with guidance and one-to-one tuition to make sure you really understand a topic so you never feel afraid to put your hand up and ask for help and advice.
A big bonus has been the work experience. We’ve all worked closely with the Chesterfield School Sports Partnership and each gained over 100 hours of invaluable experience helping to coach youngsters in a variety of sports. Having this experience on my university application really helped and to be honest, helped confirm in my mind that I want to follow a career as a PE teacher or coach. I’m now progressing to Sheffield Hallam University to study Physical Education and School Sports.”
