Sport, Recreation and Leisure Studies

Choosing the right course and college is the first step to success. In the Sports Studies Department students are educated and trained to meet the needs of a modern and expanding industry. People are spending more time and money on recreation and leisure, creating a shortage of qualified personnel within the sport, leisure and fitness industry. We aim to address this demand by providing quality education and training to deaf and hearing-impaired people. As well as providing students with sport and leisure qualifications, we offer additional essential training that equips students with transferable skills relevant to further or higher education or employment.

The combination of the College's excellent facilities, staff expertise and excellent sporting links in the local area, successfully prepares students for work and further and higher education in the sport and leisure industry.

Excellence in Education

In the Sports Studies Department, we work hard to provide excellent teaching and learning opportunities, whilst providing support and resources necessary for students to succeed and achieve their academic and personal goals. We believe in using the holistic approach to develop students and believe this to be a vital tool in developing confidence, maturity, self-esteem and identity along with achievement and success.
