Physics is an excellent subject that leads to many further education pathways including Medical Physics, Radiography, Architecture, Actuary, Optician, Engineering and even Stock Broking. The AQA Physics specification incorporates many aspects of Physics from our everyday lives into its course. This engaging and inspiring GCE Physics specification houses both classical and modern day physics concepts under the one course of study. The students look at ideas that defined Physics through the ages, from Newtonian ideas of projectile motion to modern day advances such as particle physics, the development of medical physics and the production of the atomic bomb.
There are three 2 hour papers: Paper 1 (34% of A Level), Paper 2 (34% of A Level) and Paper 3 (32% of A Level). In addition to theoretical work, students will be expected to develop 12 key practical skill sets through topic based practicals.
