      Amendment to NEA guide for AS and A Level Physical Education 17 March 2023

      In our non-exam assessment (NEA) guidance for AS and A Level Physical Education H155/H555, we've amended the distance rules for boys' cross-country running courses. We've made this change to keep in line with English Schools' Athletic Association (ESAA) guidelines.

      On page 52 of the AS and A Level guide to non-exam assessment, we've changed the following:

      • ‘Boys' courses must be between 6500-7500m in length’ is now ‘Boys' courses must be between 6000-7500m in length’

      This change is for summer 2023 onwards.

      You can view the updated NEA guide (version 6.2) on the AS and A Level Physical Education qualification page and on Teach Cambridge.

      If you have any queries about this update, please contact the PE Subject Advisor team at pe@ocr.org.uk or call our Customer Support Centre on 01223 553998.
