Content is split into six teaching modules: • Module 1 – Development of practical skills in physics • Module 2 – Foundations in Physics • Module 3 – Forces and motion • Module 4 – Electrons, waves and photons • Module 5 – Newtonian world and astrophysics • Module 6 – Particles and Medical Physics ● Component 01 assesses content from modules 1,2,3 and 5 ● Component 02 assesses content from modules 1,2,4 and 6 ● Component 03 assesses content from all modules (1 -6) To achieve an ‘AS’ Level GCE, candidates study Modules 1, 2, 3 and 4. To achieve an ‘A’ Level GCE Certificate candidates study Modules 5 and 6. Physics is concerned with the nature of the physical world and the laws that describe the behavior of its component parts, from quarks, nuclei, and atoms to planets, stars, and galaxies. The boundaries of Physics cannot be closely defined since the particles of nature and the forces between them underpin all chemical compounds, biological molecules, and engineering materials. Many other Science, Engineering, and ICT subjects depend to a greater or lesser degree on Physics.
A minimum of 5 GCSEs at Grade 4 or above or equivalent. To ensure success at this level we students will require a grade 6-6 in GCSE Combined Science. A grade 6 in GCSE Mathematics is recommended.
Modeling physics (01) 100 marks 2 hours 15 minutes Written paper 37% of total A level. Exploring physics (02) 100 marks 2 hours 15 minutes Written paper 37% of total A level. Unified physics (03) 70 marks 1 hour 30 minutes Written paper 26% of total A level. Practical endorsement In physics (non-exam assessment) Reported separately.
