This course will suit any student who wishes to develop their interest and enthusiasm in the physics of all that is around them. It will provide a firm scientific foundation for those wanting to make their mark in the world of science and technology in the future. Studying A-level physics does not restrict your options - it expands them. A-level physics is a mixture of conceptual thinking and very practical applications. You need to be able to think about abstract ideas such as fields but be able to apply those ideas to how, for instance, electric motors work. You will learn about everything from kinematics to relativity and recent developments in fascinating areas such as particle physics. Getting accurate results from experiments requires practice and competence in the use of lab equipment. Calculations are an important part of A-level physics so you will need to be comfortable with algebra. At the same time, descriptive work requires you to communicate clearly. If you are interested in the limits of space, the beginning of time, and everything in between, this is the subject for you. Physics is more than a subject – it trains your brain to think beyond boundaries!
Grade 6 in GCSE in Physics or in Combined Science and grade 6 in Maths GCSE. AS offered at end of Y13
