Today, physics is a broad and highly developed subject. As an experimental science, its goal is to understand the natural world. When you study A-level physics, you can learn about something as vast and unquantifiable as the galaxy or universe, or you can be studying the minutiae of the tiniest particles, such as atoms. Physics is fundamentally an experimental subject. Studying Physics provides numerous opportunities to use practical experiences to link theory to reality, and equip students with the essential practical skills they need.
All students must achieve 5 or more GCSE (or equivalent) qualifications at Grade 4 or above (including Maths and English). English 5+ Maths 7+ Double Science 7+|7+
