preparation for the IGCSE Physics examination. The new topics covered in Year 11 include Momentum, Molecules and Kinetics, Electromagnetic induction and Effects of Forces. As in previous years, pupils undertake a wide range of practical activities, and apply their physics to solve problems in a wide variety of circumstances, to and beyond the expectations of IGCSE. There is significant extension of topics from prior years, to take advantage of pupil’s greater mathematical skill. For example, we revisit refraction and introducing Snell’s law. There is no coursework element.
To join our Sixth Form we ask for nine GCSEs including Mathematics and English, with a minimum Grade 7 in the subjects that you wish to study, or in a related subject where the proposed course is in a new subject.
The first round assessment is a 90-minute, bespoke computer based test. The exam includes verbal and non-verbal reasoning, English and maths questions. The assessment will take place on the school premises. Pupils who are successful in round one are called back for interview. Applicants are not required to bring books, projects or other work with them to interview. We ask one or both of an applicant’s parents or guardians to attend at this time.
