Course summary

In an ever changing world Physics is a key science subject. Knowledge of physics opens doors to many careers and opportunities. The new course which has been taught at DAA since 2015 has a strong mathematical bias and it is important that you feel confident with Maths; this includes concepts such as rearranging equations, and trigonometry. Many of the units you studied at GCSE are continued such as electricity, light, magnetism and mechanics; however new areas of Physics will be introduced which you have not seen before such as Quantum and fundamental particles. The new emphasis on practical skills will mean you will be testing exciting aspects of your everyday world such as the strength of gravity or the effect on a body with zero friction. In order to study Physics you must study A-level Maths.
