Physics

Course summary

Our A Level Physics A specification takes a content led approach to the course. This is a flexible approach where the specification is divided into topics, each covering different key concepts of physics. As learners progress through the course, they’ll build on their knowledge of the laws of physics, applying their understanding to areas from sub-atomic particles to the entire universe. We’re striving for good science that’s straightforward and engaging to teach, with fair, challenging and relevant assessment that works well in centres and promotes practical activity. In order to be successful you are expected to practise the work we do outside of lessons and to read around the subject to deepen understanding.
