Women's Football Scholarship
&  Education Programme
New for September 2023 
 

The Education component of the overall programme is where individuals have their own study programme based on their GCSE grades. However, there is a qualification at every level based on what has been obtained at school.

 

Our teaching is dynamic and engaging. Individuals are not only assessed on their theoretical knowledge, but also on their practical application. Individuals have the use of desktop computers and/or laptops, various IT and an extensive library of resources to help them achieve.

 

Depending on the level an individual achieves, they can progress on to University, a USA Sport Scholarship, an Apprenticeship or straight into a career that is sport or non sport related.

 

The components of their own study individual programme are;

 

One main core qualification based on their GCSE grades from the list below

- BTEC Level 3 Extended Diploma in Sport (equivalent to 3 A Levels)

- BTEC Level 3 Diploma in Sport in Sport (equivalent to 2 A Levels)
