Pupils develop a detailed understanding of how physical activity affects us physiologically and psychologically, alongside studying the social, historical and contemporary influences shaping modern sport. Theory is consistently brought to life through practical application, with pupils encouraged to draw on their own sporting experiences to deepen analysis and evaluation.
The course is supported by Dame Allan’s exceptional sports provision, with extensive facilities, specialist coaching and a strong culture of participation and performance across the school.
We are saddened to hear the news of the closure of Durham High School.
We understand that this will be a worrying and uncertain time for pupils, their families and staff. If your family has been affected, and you would like to discuss options for your child’s education, our Admissions Team is here to provide advice and support, and to answer any questions you may have.
