All our BTEC students need to have an interest and passion for Sport. Those that do well and achieve the High grades are able to priorities their workloads well. They can be organised and plan ahead of time, often keeping a diary of when work is due in, as you will always have at least 2 pieces of work to be working on. Most of all they put in the effort in their work and take pride in what they do, taking ownership of this.
