The WJEC Entry Level in Physical Education course is popular with centres in both Wales and England.

The scheme is assessed through 100% practical work. Candidates select six activities from:

  • Games Activities e.g. soccer, basketball, badminton, hockey
  • Gymnastics Activities e.g. gymnastics, trampolining, diving
  • Swimming Activities e.g. swimming, life saving
  • Athletic Activities e.g. athletics, cycling, weight lifting
  • Adventurous Activities e.g. hill walking, sailing, mountain biking
  • Exercise Activities e.g.– two from circuit training, weight training, keep fit, aerobics
  • Dance e.g. contemporary, traditional, creative, jazz

To ensure balance and variety candidates must choose from at least three of the main categories listed above.

Candidates are internally assessed and in most cases externally moderated.

Moderation takes place during the period March to early May.

This qualification will be discontinued in July 2013.

For teaching from September 2011, the new Physical Education units can be found in the Healthy Living and Fitness qualifications within the new Entry Pathways.
