Assessment overview
All components include synoptic assessment.
Students who are retaking a qualification may carry forward their result for the non-exam assessment.
Students must complete all components (01, 02, 04 and 05) to be awarded the OCR GCSE in Physical Education.
Content overview
Component 01: physical factors affecting performance.
Students explore how parts of the human body function during physical activity and the physiological adaptations that can occur due to diet and training. They also develop skills in data analysis, and an understanding of the principles of training, why we train in different ways and how training plans can be made to optimise results.
There are two topics:
- Applied anatomy and physiology
- Physical training.
Component 02: Socio-cultural issues and sports psychology
Students develop their knowledge of the social-cultural and psychological influences on levels of participation in sport, and also how sport impacts on society more broadly. This includes the individual benefits to health, fitness and well-being of participating in physical activity, as well as the influences of commercialisation, sponsorship and the media.
There are three topics:
- Socio-cultural influences
- Sports psychology
- Health, fitness and well-being.
Component 04: Practical performances
Students are assessed in performing three practical activities and one performance analysis task. In the practical performance, they demonstrate effective performance, the use of tactics or techniques and the ability to observe the rules and conventions under applied conditions.
Component 05: Analysis and evaluation of performance (AEP)
Students are required to demonstrate their ability to analyse and evaluate their own or a peers practical performance to produce an action plan for improvement.

This resource includes all of the fitness tests for OCR GCSE PE. For each test, it outlines the procedure, the equipment needed and the unit of measurement. Each test also includes normative data. There is room for students to record their fitness test results up to three times, this is ideal for a practical fitness testing lesson, students can then keep this in their folders to assist them with future revision or completion of coursework, when they may wish to refer to their fitness testing results. It also makes it very easy for students to work independently throughout a practical fitness testing lesson, as they have all of the information needed. I have found this works best if printed as an A5 stapled document.
