Physics is a fascinating subject that will satisfy the minds of those who are curious about the laws that govern the behaviour of everything from a quark to a red supergiant. It is also a practical subject, so if you learn best from hands-on experience, you will make excellent progress. Studying Physics will develop you as an all-round person, as it requires data handling, Mathematics and ICT, as well as imagination, creativity and communication skills. At St Dunstan's College, we ensure that all students have experience of being a practising Physicist. Whether it is writing code for the International Space Station, analysing the LHC data set to find the Higgs Boson, or using an electron microscope to study the structure of ant eyes, we want all students to feel the excitement of being a scientist over just learning about them.
Entry requirements for the Sixth Form are currently set at an average of grade 6 or above across all the subjects studied at GCSE with 9-7 (A*/A equivalent) grades in the subjects appropriate to the student’s choice of A Levels. A grade 8 in GCSE/IGCSE Physics, or 8,8 in Double Science, and a grade 7 in Mathematics. There is an ongoing and considerable need to use mathematics in A-level physics and students must be confident they will be able to manage this requirement.
