Physics A Level Overview
At Physics ‘A’ level we take the ideas introduced at GCSE, expand and enhance the understanding of a subject whose principles have been used to design and manufacture everything from the pen to the space shuttle. Physics is also one of the subjects where research is still undertaken purely for the sake of knowledge, investigating how particles interact and what really makes the universe work. Discoveries from this research will eventually lead to new innovations in our everyday lives. The Department enjoys a good success rate at A level, providing a well rounded and balanced development of student’s skills. This allows those who study Physics to go on to follow a diverse range of subjects in Higher Education. As well as Physics they include; Medicine, Mechanical Engineering, Architecture, Mathematics, Biological Science, Chemistry and Aeronautical Engineering to name but a few.
