APPROPRIATE SUBJECTS TO ACCOMPANY BTEC SPORT<br />

There are no obvious accompaniments to BTEC sport, although those students who are also studying biology benefit<br />

considerably from the association with the applied anatomy and physiology components of the course.<br />

CAREER OPPORTUNITIES<br />

Many pupils who study BTEC Sport will pursue careers in sport, leisure management, physiotherapy, sports journalism<br />

or teaching physical education at some level. However the multi-disciplinary nature of the course is compatible with a<br />

wide range of career choice.<br />
