      AS and A Level Physical Education (H155/H555) 30 August 2017

      Updates to guide to non-examination assessment (NEA)

      Section 2b.1 – Updated to show students can complete the evaluation and analysis of performance for improvement (EAPI) in their practical sport or any other sport from the approved list.

      Section 2e.18, Gymnastics – Updated to correct GCSE to GCE.

      Section 2e.37, Table Tennis – Updated to remove intercepting in doubles as this is not a relevant skill in this sport.

      Update to Powerchair football: Classification criteria link has been updated to reflect the changed location of this information.

      Update to Wheelchair Basketball: Classification criteria link has been updated to reflect the changed location of this information.

      Addition of a new section, 3c.4, page 94 – Updated filming requirements for the AS and A level specifications. See below for full text:

      3c.4 Requirements to film a sample of students for on-site activities

      To support moderation, centres are requested to keep the following as a minimum filmed evidence sample of on-site activities:

      • At least 6 candidate performances
      • Across at least 2 activities
      • Encompassing a range of marks – ideally top, middle and lowest mark in each of the two activities

      This is in addition to the off-site activity filmed evidence requirements.

      We have become aware of a number of centres who haven't completed logs of competitive participation. Please note the final paragraph in section 2b.1: your learners are required to complete a competitive log for each of their sports. A template can be found in the forms section of the subject page on the OCR website.

      If you teach students with a physical disability, please see section 1e of the guide to NEA for how to apply to adapt the sports criteria to suit the disability. This should be completed and sent in to OCR the first term of their course.

      If you have any queries about this notice, please call our Customer Contact Centre on 01223 553998 or email general.qualifications@ocr.org.uk.
