Physics is the study of matter, energy, space and time. It is the most fundamental description of the universe we live in. It will stretch your imagination as you contemplate the nature of time and matter. You will, however, keep your feet firmly on the ground in looking at the applications of physics in medicine, music, sport and design of structures. Edexcel is a concept-led course which puts the physics first and contains a balance of topics to interest those hoping to pursue degrees from Theoretical Physics to Engineering.
A typical Sixth Form student will join Year 12 with a minimum of six GCSEs at Level 5 or above, including Mathematics and English, with Level 6 achieved in those subjects they propose to study at A Level. Students wishing to study Physics at A level require a solid score in Separate Physics or Higher Tier Combined Science and strong working mathematics from GCSE.
