Course summary

Physics helps us to understand the world around us; it underpins our knowledge of the known universe and encourages us to think about the concept of space and time itself. In A-Level Physics, you will explore a range of scientific theories that will help you to understand the subject at a higher level, developing an impressive range of skills such as problem-solving, data analysis and report writing, which are highly valued by universities and employers alike. In this academic and cutting-edge A Level, you will stretch your imagination whilst exploring theories that explain everything from the very smallest particle to the far-flung edges of the universe. Please note that if you study A-Level Physics you must also take A-Level Mathematics – this is a requirement of the course.
