What the college says

Studying Maths alongside Physics is not a requirement but it is extremely useful, and students who are not taking A level Maths need to be prepared to complete additional home learning tasks. If you are not studying A-level Maths alongside Physics then a strong Maths GCSE and complimentary A-level subjects are strongly advised. Students should be aware that Physics is an academically demanding subject and a willingness to work hard is essential for success.

What you need to get on

You need to have taken Physics or Combined Science GCSE. You are required to have achieved a minimum of Grades 7,6 in Combined Science GCSE or grade 6 in GCSE Physics.

How you are assessed

Academic subjects, mostly exams, three or four at once. The traditional route to university.

What this level means

The A-level-equivalent step, and what universities and employers ask for.

Is it open to 16 to 18 year olds?
