A Level Physics enables pupils to build on their knowledge of the laws of physics, applying their understanding to solve problems on topics ranging from subatomic particles to the entire universe. They also have the opportunity to develop all the relevant practical skills. The content is in six modules: Module 1: Development of practical skills in physics Module 2: Foundations in physics Module 3: Forces and motion Module 4: Electrons, waves and photons Module 5: Newtonian world and astrophysics Module 6: Particles and medical physics
