This course will make you think about Physics and its application to the world. It aims to give you a greater understanding of key physical concepts. The course has a mixture of theory, application and practical work. In the first year, you will cover the first 4 modules: Development of skills in physics; Foundations of physics; Forces and motion; Electrons, waves and photons. In the final year, you will cover the 2 additional modules: Newtonian world and astrophysics; Particles and medical physics.
GCSE Double Science (6-6) or Triple Science (6-6-5) with Physics being at grade 6. Must be taken with A-Level Maths.
You will be assessed throughout the year through a series of formative assessment methods, including mock exams and end of year progression assessments, to check you are keeping pace and understand the content taught. At the end of two years, you will sit 3 externally set examinations: Paper 1 Modelling Physics (37% weighting); Paper 2 Exploring Physics (37% weighting); Paper 3 Unified Physics (26% weighting). To achieve the endorsement, you must successfully complete all PAGs, which are practical experiments with differing skill sets. This demonstrates to universities that you are competent in the laboratory.
