Sports Leadership Award Level 3 Page 11 The Level 3 Certificate in Higher Sports Leadership enables students to lead unsupervised groups of people in sport and recreational activities. It builds upon the skills and experience gained through the Level 1 and 2 Award in Community Sports Leadership. This qualification is worth 16 UCAS tariff points. Students undertaking a qualification in Sports Leadership will learn and demonstrate important life skills such as effective communication and organisation whilst learning to lead basic physical activities of younger people, their peers, older generations and within the community. The courses involve both guided and peer-to-peer learning and supervised leadership to ensure that learners have all the skills they need to lead basic physical activities to other people. The sessions use sport to deliver fun and engaging physical activities with other students and within the community. Students will plan, lead and evaluate sports/physical activity sessions over a number of tutored hours and then demonstrate their leadership skills as part of their assessment. Assessment will take place through the following methods: • Practical observation – video/photos can be used to support this • Questioning of underpinning knowledge - via worksheets • Planning and evaluating leadership experience. This is not a rotation option and students must commit to the qualification in both Years 12 and 13.
