Contemporary studies in physical education — IGCSE Physical Education (0413) questions by topic
Contemporary studies in physical education asks you to describe advantages and disadvantages of media coverage such as radio, suggest advantages of hosting a global event like the Olympic Games or FIFA World Cup beyond increased tourism, explain how named factors affect participation in a sport such as football, and identify levels of the sports development pyramid. Describe, identify, explain, suggest and state are the top command words, each wanting distinct, named points rather than repeated general observations.
This page holds 10 real questions worth between 3 and 11 marks, all from 2024 papers. Practise the suggest and explain tasks by listing genuinely different points, since the mark scheme credits distinct advantages or factors, then submit your answers for instant marking to check you have not repeated the same idea in different words.
