“Studying Physics at school is excellent preparation for a range of challenging and rewarding degree courses,” said Wendy Platt, Director General of The Russell Group. Physics will provide you with genuine challenge, and foster your interest in and enthusiasm for the subject with a view to continuing on to further study, a related career or both. You will gain a greater appreciation of Physics, from sub-atomic particles to the entire universe - through developing your knowledge and understanding, and recognising the links between different areas of the subject. In Year 12 there are four modules: Module 1 – Development of Practical Skills in Physics Module 2 – Foundations of Physics Module 3 – Forces and motion Module 4 – Electrons, waves and photons With an additional two modules In Year 13: Module 5 – Newtonian World and Astrophysics Module 6 – Particle and Medical Physics
At least 5 courses successfully at the following levels; 9 – 5 (or equivalent) at GCSE, or level 2 BTEC/CTEC/VCERT.
100% exams, plus a non-examination assessment— ’Practical endorsement for Physics’ - where students complete a minimum of 12 practical activities to develop and demonstrate practical skills in Physics. Many courses at University are now expecting students to have passed the practical endorsement.
