A Level Physics

Physics presents a content-led, flexible approach where the specification is divided into topics, each covering different key concepts. As you progress through the course you will build on your knowledge of the laws of physics and topics ranging from sub-atomic particles to the entire universe.

Making observations enables you to understand the interactions between quantities in physics, and so practical work is an important part of the course.
