Why does light travel through glass and not through metal? If you like asking questions like this and want to find out about the answers then perhaps you should consider studying A-level Physics. Building on your GCSE experiences, we continue the journey of discovery bringing mathematical skills together with physical principles to predict and model the future. Through this course you will gain experience of a wide range of physics. You will consider the weird and wonderful quantum nature of light and matter, learn about electromagnetism, delve into the depths of particle accelerators and explore the vast universe, bringing mathematical skills together with physical principles to predict and model the future.
At least five GCSEs at Grade 4 or above all from the core subjects, as well as Grade 6 in Physics OR 6 in both Core AND Additional Science plus Grade 6 in Maths. We strongly recommend that you take A-level Maths alongside Physics.
The A-level grade is 100% determined from 3 exams at the end of the 2 year course. There is also a stand alone practical endorsement that you build up over the course by completing practical work. This is awarded as a pass or fail.
