If the study of health, performance, leadership and fitness is something that inspires you, our Academy of Sport, Health and Public Services is the perfect choice for you.

We have recently had a £6 million investment in our new fitness studio, gym, international standard 4G pitch and sports performance centre which incorporates a state of the art altitude chamber which you will use during your time with us. We also have strong links with a wide range of sporting and public sector organisations, such as England Amputee Football Association, RAF, AoC Sport and National Outdoor Training Centres, who you may have a chance to work alongside.

If your sights are set on a career in sport, one of our sports courses will give you the qualifications employers want while also improving your own sporting ability.

Or, if you want to become a fully qualified personal trainer, why not look into our Personal Training course? You’ll spend time enjoying practical sessions in our new facilities, while you work towards gaining recognised qualifications.

If you prefer more adventurous sporting activities, or if you are interested in the dynamic careers that the public service sector offers, then take a look at our Adventure Sports or Public Services courses.

As an Adventure Sports student you will have access to top-of-the-range specialist outdoor equipment such as mountain bikes, kayaks and canoes in order to test your own outdoor skills, along with your coaching and leadership abilities.

Public Services students will participate in a variety of outdoor adventurous activities and practice emergency response situations. You will also be given the chance to complete teamwork and leadership activities to prepare you for your future career.
