Scientists with a passion for Physics will find this course opens the door to understanding the fundamental principles that govern the universe. This dynamic and intellectually stimulating subject challenges students to delve deep into both traditional and modern physics topics, equipping them with the analytical and problem-solving skills essential for a multitude of scientific and engineering fields. Throughout the course, students will explore a diverse array of engaging topics that not only build upon their GCSE foundation but also expand their horizons. Key areas of study include: Measurements and their errors: Students learn the importance of accuracy and precision in scientific experiments. Further mechanics and thermal physics: This section delves into the laws governing motion and energy, providing a solid foundation for understanding the physical world. Particles and radiation: Students explore the fundamental building blocks of matter and the principles of radiation, essential for grasping concepts in nuclear chemistry. Fields and their consequences: This topic examines gravitational, electric, and magnetic fields and how they influence the behaviour of objects in motion. Waves: Students investigate the properties of waves, including sound and light, and their applications in technology and communication. Nuclear physics: This exciting area covers the principles behind nuclear reactions and their applications, from energy production to medical imaging. Mechanics and materials: Students study the behaviour of materials under various forces, linking physics with engineering principles. Electricity: This topic introduces the fundamental concepts of electric circuits and their applications in everyday life. Additionally, students have the opportunity to choose an optional topic that aligns with their interests, selecting from areas such as astrophysics, medical physics, engineering physics, ‘turning points’, or electronics. This flexibility allows for a personalised learning experience that enhances engagement and excitement.
GCSE Grade 7 in Maths and GCSE Grade 7 in Physics (Combined Science Grade 7 - 6).
To achieve the full A-Level qualification, students will be assessed on all the content learned during Years 12 and 13 at the end of their second year, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of the subject matter.
