You will gain fundamental knowledge in sports nutrition, and how nutrition impacts your anatomy and physiology.

This is a full-time course for one year at our Highbury Campus.
You will be assessed through a variety of ways (activity, group work, photographic and video) which will be presented through a portfolio of evidence. You will have weekly tutorials and receive feedback every six weeks to discuss your progress and to set achievement targets. All of our programmes are planned around your individual learning needs, with a timetable that clearly identifies the sessions that will be taught. You will be assigned a Programme Lead who will support you throughout your time in College. Teaching, coaching and learning support staff will work closely with you and your parents/carers to help you achieve planned learning goals.
This programme could lead to a higher-level course at university or prepare you for employment in the sport and leisure industry.
