Years 10 - 11

We study the AQA specification at GCSE. Students will sit external examinations for this in the summer of Year 11. Students are entered either for Triple Science or Combined Science GCSEs. We encourage the development of knowledge and understanding in Physics by providing the students with opportunities for working scientifically. We will complete a number of practical activities throughout the course. Students will need to be able to recall these practicals in the examinations.

We also recommend buying a copy of the CGP revision guide for AQA Physics. This is available through Parent Pay. The students have access to the online textbook on the Kerboodle website.

Topics we cover are:

  • 4.1 Energy
  • 4.2 Electricity
  • 4.3 Particle Model
  • 4.4 Atomic Structure
  • 4.5 Forces
  • 4.6 Waves
  • 4.7 Electo & Magnetism
  • 4.8 Space Physics (Physics only)
  • 4.9 Key Ideas
