A Level Physics is an exciting subject enabling students to appreciate how fundamental science works and to study the history of the key developments influencing Physics. Year 12 Measurements and their errors Particles and Radiation Waves Mechanics and Materials Electricity Year 13 The full A Level examines all of the above and: Further Mechanics and Thermal Physics Fields and their consequences Nuclear Physics Option module: Turning Points in Physics We want students who: Are motivated, hardworking, inquisitive, independent, and resilient with a love of Physics. You will ideally have studied GCSE Physics.
Grade 6 in GCSE Physics or at least a Grade 6-6 in Combined Science Grade 5 in English and Grade 7 in Maths and (as per the Institute of Physics) we recommend you also take a Level 3 Maths qualification.
There will be three two-hour papers: Papers 1 and 2 – 85 marks each, with 60 marks for short and long answer questions and 25 multiple-choice questions on content. Paper 3 – 80 marks, with 45 marks for short and long answer questions on practical experiments and data analysis, and 35 marks for short and long answer questions on the Turning Points in Physics topic.
