Physics at this level covers traditional concepts such as forces and motion, electricity, materials, and waves as well as post-twentieth-century developments such as radioactivity, quantum physics, particle accelerators, astrophysics, and how these modern ideas link to medicine, sport, food technology, astrophysics, particle physics, music and archaeology. The course builds on concepts and skills developed at GCSE and aims to show students how Physics can be applied to the world around them.
Entrance requirements are a minimum of grades 6-6 in GCSE Combined Science or grades 666 in GCSE Biology, GCSE Chemistry, and GCSE Physics. A minimum of a grade 6 in higher tier Maths is also required.
The course is assessed by means of end-of-course exams and a separate practical element. Unit 1 (30% of A Level) Advanced Physics 1 Unit 2 ((30% of A Level) Advanced Physics 2 Unit 3 (40% of A Level) General and Practical Principles in Physics Science Practical endorsement (marked separately)
