Physics is a highly valued A-Level that helps you to understand the universe, from the smallest particle to the largest galaxy. It explains the forces which govern nature and how and why things move and behave in the way they do. You will learn about the life cycle of stars, medical applications, and the strange world of quantum particles and you will see how this knowledge applies to technology and the real world in a variety of exciting contexts. What are the progression opportunities? This course will help you to develop mathematical, problem-solving, and analytical skills that are highly valued in a huge range of careers. Students who are successful at A-level physics often go on to careers in Medicine, astronomy, engineering, meteorology, and computing. Module 1 Development of Practical Skills 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
GCSE English 5. GCSE Maths 5. Triple Science 6/6/5 or Combined Science 6/5. At least 4 x GCSE at grade 5 or above.
Assessment is 100% examinations based, with three papers at the end of Year 13.
