COMMUNITY TRUST
SPORTS COLLEGE
At Mansfield Town Community Trust, opportunities are expanded out to Post-16 and Higher Education learners, as we support students through a multitude of education programmes in our Sports College.
LEVEL 3 BTEC
DIPLOMA / EXTENDED DIMPLOMA

ABOUT THE COURSE
The Level 3 BTEC qualification is also a full time course, which runs for 2 years. Most learners who choose to enrol on this programme join us upon completing their GCSE’s.
Throughout their Level 3 studies, learners will engage in units such as: Sports Coaching; Anatomy & Physiology; Sports Psychology; and Health, Wellbeing and Sport. The study programme also supports learners with gaining key work experience within the sports sector, an in-depth tutorial programme which covers a range of topics and themes to develop thoughts, expressive opinion and also key skills to support life after education.
The Level 3 programmes will also allow learners to build key skills in practical coaching sessions, supported and led by our highly qualified FA Level 2 and UEFA B coaches.
​
Learners are also able to represent the club, in playing as part of our Post-16 squad, based at the One Call Stadium, in fixtures provided by the FA against other clubs who have similar programmes running – including Wolverhampton Wanderers, Aston Villa, Nottingham Forest and Derby County.
REQUIREMENTS
In order to secure a place on our Level 3 courses, we ask for learners to achieve a minimum of 4 GCSE’s, graded 4 to 9. These do not need to include English and Maths, as we are able to support learners through any resits for these core subjects throughout their time with us - personal tutors are assigned and will support learners in these additional areas alongside their BTEC studies.
