Level 2 Diploma in Sport (Outdoors)

Four GCSEs at grade 3 and above ideally including English and Maths. You will need to be 16 years by 31st August and ready to start in September. We're looking for people with a passion for sport and outdoors. Ideally you will share our Rockley values and beliefs, demonstrate a can-do attitude, and have the desire to give it a go. 

A personal skill level in water and land-based activities is not required, you will receive full training.

If you do not pass English or Maths, you will be able to complete these alongside the course.

Our optional training programme allows you to up-skill and work towards a range of National Governing Body and in-house qualifications. We offer training in both water and land based activities. This part of the programme is free to all our learners and gives you the perfect opportunity to develop as an instructor and prepare for a career in the outdoor industry.

Activities include: sailing, windsurfing, paddleboarding, canoeing, kayaking, powerboating, bell boating, raft building, high / low ropes, climbing, abseiling, mountain biking, walking, orienteering, rifle shooting, tunnelling, tomahawk throwing, archery, team building, expeditions, bushcraft and many more.

After this course, the majority of students continue with their studies at Rockley College, progressing on to our Level 3 Extended Diploma in Sport and Physical Activity (Outdoors). This course enables you to gain further knowledge of the sport and outdoor adventure industry and gain further RYA water and land-based qualifications as part of our optional Instructor Training Programme.
