Students will cover key concepts and developments in physics in great depth. Students will be able to appreciate, from historical and conceptual viewpoints, the significance of major paradigm shifts for the subject in the perspectives of experimentation and understanding. Many present-day technological industries are the consequence of these key developments and students will learn how unforeseen technologies can develop from new discoveries. 1. Measurements and their errors 2. Particles and radiation 3. Waves 4. Mechanics and materials 5. Electricity 6. Further mechanics and thermal physics 7. Fields and their consequences 8. Nuclear physics 9. Option component: Turning point in physics
• 5 pass grades at GCSE • Sat higher tier GCSE Science and achieved a grade 6+ in Physics GCSE or 6,6 in Combined Science GCSE as well as a 6+ in GCSE Mathematics.
