During the first year of the course you will study 4 topics, with 6 required practical activities. These practical skills must be carried out by the student with assessment of the acquired skills.
Year 2 of the A Level follows a similar structure with the study of 4 topics and a further 6 required practical activities. The linear exams (at the end of year 13) will examine all the topics from year 1 and year 2 content along with all 12 required practical activities. There are 3 two hour written examination papers for the A Level qualification.
KEY FEATURES OF THE COURSE:
As part of the new linear A Level course all students will gain a certificate in practical skills based on the 12 required practicals. This practical endorsement is now essential for study of a science based degree at most top universities

Physics
Physics is EVERYTHING.
From the very smallest part of an atom, to the edges of the Universe, Physics is at the heart. From mobile phones to microwave ovens, hair dryers to space probes, when you delve deeper, it’s all Physics.
Physicists explore the fundamental nature of almost everything we know of. They probe the furthest reaches of the earth to study the smallest pieces of matter. Join us to enter a world deep beneath the surface of normal human experience.
Did you know that people with a Physics related degree (Pure Physics, Engineering or Astronomy) earn an average £20000 more per year than the national average?
Physicists attempt to gain a fundamental understanding of why the universe and its contents behave the way they do.
By studying Physics at Advanced level you will develop and build on your current knowledge of what everything is made of and how objects move and interact. We will also study some of the phenomena which are not yet fully understood and are at the cutting edge of scientific research today

CHEMISTRY
Studying A-Level Chemistry will be challenging, fascinating and very hard work.
You will develop essential knowledge and understanding of the Periodic table, chemical concepts and trends and patterns in data. There will be an opportunity to develop an understanding of advances in modern methods of analysis and also to solve problems related to solids, gases and solutions.
You will also get the opportunity to make your own Paracetamol drug in the prestigious labs at Sheffield University.
