- The course starts by building upon basic electrical principles learnt in GCSE Physics and quickly progresses onto more complex circuits - You don't have to have previously studied GCSE Electronics, but it helps! - Much of the course is covered through practical work which helps to reinforce the theory and make it all very relevant - You will learn all about modern electronic components, from resistors to microprocessors - You will learn how computers and mobile phones work! - You will build lots of electronic circuits and use a wide range of advanced equipment - Students will go on visits and trips to see industrial electronic systems - You will surprise yourself at how quickly you are able to design and build your own complex electronic systems.
You will have achieved good GCSE grades in Mathematics and Physics (and, ideally, Electronics) before embarking on the A-Level course
20% of the course is assessed by practical coursework projects, the rest by written examination
