Course summary

Would you like to understand everything in the Universe? This ambitious goal has become the driving force behind the incredible development of Physics. It is a demanding subject which requires students to question and seek understanding of all observations, from the rotational speeds of distant galaxies down to the interactions between sub-atomic particles. Now is a fantastic time to study Physic as following an incredible two centuries of progress, we are currently in a golden era of discovery in fields such as Astronomy and Quantum Mechanics.

Entry requirements

To provide a solid foundation for A level study, we recommend that students achieve at least a Grade 6 at GCSE in any subject with which they wish to continue. In some subjects, a Grade 7 may be more suitable to facilitate positive outcomes at A level, and the Sixth Form team will be happy to provide tailored advice on this matter.

How you'll be assessed

There is no coursework element. Twelve practical activities are required to be completed satisfactorily. Through this, students build up a portfolio of practical and analytical skills to achieve their practical endorsement. The skills are then assessed in the examinations.
