Physics explores our world, from the 'unseen' dimensions of millionths of a meter to 14 billion light years - to the edges of the universe. On the scale we live on, physics is at the heart of technology that changes our lives, bringing us heat, light and communication in ever more ingenious ways. It has brought anti-matter to our hospitals and radioactivity into the pharmacy. If you find yourself wanting to understand more deeply how stuff works, why we have phenomena like red skies at night or why space junk is a huge issue for our future, then A Level Physics is for you. The course is taught through hands-on practical work, such as experiments, investigations and demonstrations. You will become familiar with a wide range of measuring methods and equipment, taught in our state-of-the-art laboratories.
- Grade 5 or above in GCSE English Language - Grade 7 or above in GCSE Maths* - Grade 6-6 or above in GCSE Combined Science (if you are studying GCSE Triple Science, you will need grade 6 in Physics and grade 6 in either Biology or Chemistry) - A further GCSE at grade 4 or above *If you have a Grade 6 in GCSE Maths you can still be enrolled if you pass an entry maths test at enrolment. The topics covered in this test will be rearranging equations, standard form, prefixes, right-angled triangles (Sohcahtoa and Pythagoras), and speed-time graphs. If you pass this test at enrollment, then you will be enrolled on a Maths for Physics class alongside your A Level Physics. If you wish to study 4 A Levels, you will need 7 GCSEs at grade 7 or above, including two at grade 8. All applicants must have an interview to confirm that A Levels are suitable for them.
Assessment is by practical work and final examination.
