Students will extend knowledge gained at GCSE in forces, motion, electricity, magnetism, waves and energy. The course also includes new work astrophysics, medical physics and nuclear physics. The first year is comprised of four modules: 1. Development of practical skills. 2. Foundations of physics. 3. Forces and motion. 4. Electrons, waves and photons. The second year includes work on two further modules: 1. The Newtonian World and Astrophysics. 2. Particles and Medical Physics
All students are required to have a minimum of 5 GCSEs. *This also includes achieving a grade 4 and 5 in GCSE English Language and English Literature and a grade 3 or above in GCSE Maths. Subject specific requirements: Students will have studied Combined Science, or Separate Sciences. They will need to have achieved at least a Grade 6 in all Science courses, and a Grade 6 in Mathematics plus a grade 6 in the Physics exam component
There are three examinations at the end of the full A level course. Component 1: Periodic Table, Elements and Physical Chemistry 37% Component 2: Synthesis and analytical Techniques 37% Component 3: Unifying Concepts 26%
