Higher Education Overview
Diplomas are part of the biggest reform programme in education for many years and have the potential to impact greatly on the HE sector.
The sector has played an important part in the development and has ensured that the Diplomas are suitable for progression into HE.
The Diploma will deliver both analytical and research skills through content relevant to the sport and active leisure industry.
"At last, a coherent, bridging framework that can link the different levels of education accessed by 14-19 year olds. The Diploma in Sport and Active Leisure promises to provide the much needed opportunities to gain the relevant and necessary vocational and academic skills needed to engage in employment and/or Higher Education."
