Physics is a Natural Science. It is concerned with the world in which we live and attempts to describe and explain natural phenomena. At A Level and IB we extend our depth of understanding of concepts from GCSE and investigate more complex topics/concepts. We use practicals where possible to enhance learning and develop some of the necessary mathematical skills. From the sub-atomic to the interstellar – Physics provides the answers.
GCSE in Physics or Dual Award Science Grade 6 IB students - Maths is taken as part of the IBDP course A-level students - A-level Maths is required to support the mathematical content/demands of the course.
Two exams (105 mins each) based on groups of topics followed by a final exam (150 mins) as a synoptic paper covering all areas with an emphasis on practical techniques. Practical skills competency - internally assessed (not part of the A Level award).
