11PES Course DescriptionTeacher in Charge: Mr J. Kumate.
Pre-requisitesThis course is open to students with a genuine interest in Physical Education and a particular pathway for UE. Students taking this course cannot take 11OPES or 11SDE because of a crossover with the Achievement Standards offered in these courses.

These topics include, factors affecting participation in physical activity, practical performance, functional anatomy, biomechanics, exercise physiology, and an introduction to coaching.
This course will be an advantage to those students who intend to go onto study the Level Two NCEA courses in either Physical Education or Outdoor Education, and those who wish to follow the University Entrance pathway.
