Physics

Assessment

This is a two-year linear A Level where you are examined on the whole syllabus at the end of the second year. Each project is assessed as a portfolio of work. There are three exams at the end of this two-year linear A-level, all of which are two hours long. At least 15% of the marks for A-level Physics are based on what you learned in your practicals. There will be various mock exams to prepare you for the final exams. To prepare for external exams, you will carry out a program of weekly tests, exam-style assessments, and Formal Progress Points where you will monitor your attendance, how hard you are working, and your academic progress. All Year 1 students will progress through a Year 1 Gateway that will allow them to progress to Year 2.
