WHAT WILL I LEARN? Physics encompasses the study of the universe from the largest galaxies to the smallest subatomic particles. It is the basis of many other sciences including chemistry, astronomy, seismology and oceanography. The fundamentals of physics are also central to the technology that drives modern society. A Level Physics is a challenging course that covers a diverse set of topics. -In Year 12 we will cover the following topics: measurements and their errors; particles and radiation; waves; mechanics and materials; electricity. -In Year 13 we continue to improve the practical skills developed through the measurement and errors topic as well as covering: further mechanics and thermal physics; fields and their consequences; nuclear physics; astrophysics.
Applicants to the sixth form should secure on average grade 7s in 7 GCSEs, including English and Maths. Students should achieve a grade 8 in subjects that they want to study at A-level, or in related subjects for new courses
Year 13: -Paper 1 – 85 marks, 2 hours, 34% of A Level grade. -Paper 2 – 85 marks, 2 hours, 34% of A Level grade. -Paper 3 – 80 marks, 2 hours, 32% of A Level grade. -Practical skills endorsement from teacher – pass/fail grade reported alongside A Level grade.
