As an A-level Physics student, you will further develop the practical skills gained at GCSE. You will undertake the following topics: foundations in physics, forces and motion, electrons, waves and photons; Newtonian world and astrophysics, particles and medical physics. A-level Physics will teach you the basic principles of the science, giving you a wide range of knowledge into the guiding forces of the universe; including velocity, acceleration, force, mass, and energy. These forces can be applied to the motion of all objects, i.e. electrons, athletes, animals or even plants. Support will be given with more than one teacher available to explain these new concepts in a different way that may aid understanding. Small groups should allow teachers to offer regular individual help during lessons. Modules titles: Module 1 – Development of skills in practical physics Module 2 – Foundations of Physics Module 3 – Forces and motion Module 4 – Electrons, waves and photons Module 5 – Newtonian world and astrophysics Module 6 – Particles and Medical Physics
Separate Science, must have a grade 6 in Physics, with at least two grade 5s in the other sciences. Grade 7-6 in Combined Science where Separate Science is not taken. Grade 5 in English Literature and/or English Language. Grade 6 in Mathematics (Students MUST be fluent in both their numeric, algebraic, and trigonometry skills from GCSE Mathematics).
As a student of physics, you will gain a wide range of skills through practical work integrated with theoretical study, and you will be assessed through written papers. Practice past paper questions and examination of associated mark schemes. Assessment will be through written papers. Students will be encouraged to read more widely into the subject with provided “fact sheets”, which will provide interesting applications of concepts studied in class. Support will be given with more than one teacher being available to explain these new concepts in a different way that may aid understanding. Small groups will enable regular individual help during lessons.
