Physics

Course summary

In A Level Physics, we explore the laws that explain why everything in the universe exists: where energy comes from, how it behaves and how it can be transformed. We also examine the forces of nature – like gravity – and how they work. A Level Physics will give you an understanding of how sustained flight works and why satellites don’t (usually) fall from the sky. Studying A Level Physics will develop your reasoning, problem-solving and analytical skills, and will provide you with excellent preparation for university. It will train you to investigate theories, devise tests and explore new ideas. Such strong problem-solving skills are highly sought after. Indeed, qualifications in physics and maths are two of the most desirable qualifications employers look for.
