Physics

Physics is the study of the physical universe and the processes that shape it. Pupils develop a sense of the enormous scale and complexity of the subject, enabling them to appreciate just how amazing and fascinating physics can be.

Pupils carry out experiments and use these to instill the basics of good laboratory practice and enhance their understanding of the underlying laws and principles. Pupils study hands-on topics including electricity, mechanics, waves, atmospheric physics, and nuclear physics.

Our Physics curriculum is designed to ignite curiosity and foster a deep understanding of the natural world through the study of matter, energy, and the fundamental forces of nature. Whether it be the, Cambridge International (IGCSE & AS/ A Level) or the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) curriculum, we provide students with a comprehensive and flexible science education tailored to their academic goals and interests.

Pupils will explore and learn about a range of fascinating topics. This includes: mechanics, materials, waves, electricity, magnetism, thermal physics, nuclear physics, thermodynamics, oscillations and waves, electric currents, fields and forces, and energy production. Pupils carry out experiments and use these to instil the basics of good laboratory practice and enhance understanding of the underlying laws and principles.

Physics is a dynamic and integral field of study that equips students with a profound understanding of the natural world, critical problem-solving skills, and the foundation for technological and scientific advancements. Whether pursuing advanced studies or entering diverse career paths, the study of physics opens doors to numerous opportunities and contributes significantly to personal and societal progress. Join us in exploring the fascinating world of physics and become part of the next generation of scientists, innovators and thinkers.
