The BTEC International Level 3 in Sport (Extended Diploma) at BISP combines practical learning and academic excellence, offering students a well-rounded education tailored to their passion for sport. With access to world-class facilities, expert coaches, and connections within Phuket’s sporting community, students graduate with both a BTEC qualification and a high school diploma, preparing them for various future paths.

The BTEC Diploma holds the same academic rigour as three A Levels and is recognised by universities worldwide for sports-related degrees. With a 100% coursework-based structure, it offers a hands-on alternative to exam-heavy programmes, focusing on real-world projects and teamwork to build problem-solving skills.

There are no prerequisites—students don’t need to have studied PE or played competitive sports to join. Motivation and a passion for learning through sport are all that’s needed. Throughout the course, students explore sports science, nutrition, psychology, and management, applying their knowledge in coaching sessions, assessments, and live events. They also have the opportunity to earn additional qualifications, such as First Aid Training and coaching badges, enhancing their skills and employability.

Graduates leave well-prepared for careers in sports coaching, fitness instruction, sports therapy, and business management, with the diploma also serving as a stepping stone to university. At BISP, students gain the knowledge, experience, and confidence to thrive—whether in sports, education, or any other field they pursue.

For our Year 9 and Year 11 students and parents, we invite you to attend the Subject Selection Fair on Thursday, 31st October at the Main Teaching Building (MTB). Mr Terry, Head of Upper School and IGCSE Coordinator, will lead an IGCSE presentation in the Auditorium at 1:45 pm, followed by discussions on IB and BTEC options with Mrs Webster. This event offers a valuable opportunity to explore faculty displays, learn about academic pathways, and make informed decisions about the year ahead.

For new families, we encourage you to join our Information & School Tour on 7th November to meet teachers, explore the curriculum, and experience life at BISP. Register now to secure your spot – we look forward to welcoming you!
