To succeed you need to have a highly inquisitive mind, strong mathematical skills, a powerful imagination and a logical approach to problem solving. In return, you will gain training in a discipline at the forefront of modern technology and you’ll leave with a qualification in one of the subjects most sought after by employers and by universities. You will learn theory and develop practical skills throughout the course. Your work in class will be supported by practice questions completed at home and revision sessions as examinations approach. The core content includes 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. Turning Points in Physics The AQA course (Physics A) is linear. To achieve the full A level all exams will be completed in Year 13. A stand-alone AS is available at the end of Year 12 where only sections 1-5 only are examined.
