Physics involves: creative thought, mathematics, analysis, practical work, linking ideas, communicating, ethics and faith, designing, a sense of humour, interpreting data, problem solving, determination and understanding the universe - but do not worry, we develop these abilities as we progress. A level Physics is a very well-respected qualification. Throughout the course, students are constantly encouraged to develop their communication, ICT, research and practical skills. Physics is fundamentally an experimental subject and we provide numerous opportunities to use practical experiences to link theory to reality and equip you with the essential practical skills you need. The skills learnt in Physics have application in a very wide range of contexts and would be excellent preparation for any Physics, Engineering, Mathematics or Computer Science degree.
• Ideally Grade 7+ in GCSE Physics (Students achieving a Grade 6 will be considered individually). • Ideally Grade 7-7 or better in Combined Science (students achieving a Grade 6-6 will be considered individually). • Grade 6 at least in GCSE Mathematics. • Taking A level Mathematics is recommended for A level Physics.
