Course Overview

This Foundation degree will give you a vocationally relevant higher-education qualification – alongside other vocationally recognised qualifications – that will set you on the path to a rewarding career as a sports coach.

The course provides you with a broad knowledge base from which to explore the role of a sports coach. There are also opportunities to apply this knowledge within a work-based setting.

Your studies are built around a framework of sport science topics so you gain a firm understanding of sport psychology, anatomy and physiology as well as employment in the sports industry, management and units dedicated to sports coaching and performance development.

General Eligibility

We will consider you as an individual and take into account all elements of your application, not just your qualifications. We are looking for breadth and depth in your current studies and enthusiasm for the subject you wish to study.

A Foundation Degree will be of particular interest if you have completed a Modern Apprenticeship, vocational A levels, BTEC National or equivalent.

Foundation Degrees are also particularly suitable if you want to qualify while working.

As a guideline, a typical offer would require you to obtain a UCAS tariff score of between 32-48 points, based on your level 3 studies.

You can work out how many UCAS points your qualifications are worth with the UCAS tariff calculator
