Physics A Level

Please refer to individual courses.

Physics is a captivating science about matter and energy and the interaction between them; it ranges from studies of the impossibly small, such as subatomic particles, to the infinitely large, such as stars, galaxies and even the entire universe. It is about asking fundamental questions and trying to answer them through observation and experimentation.

Studying Physics at A Level will not only answer the questions raised by your studies at GCSE, but may even allow you to answer some of the currently unanswered questions in the world today.

Subjects covered:

. Particals, radiation and quantum mechanics
