A-Level Physics Including Exams & Practicals
Key Points
- Gain a deeper understanding of key scientific principles.
- Covers expansive topics such as particle physics and astrophysics.
- Develop a comprehensive understanding of atomic structure, waves and matter.
- AQA exams included (AQA Specification: 7408).
- Enables you to progress to university level study.
- Practical elements included.
Studying your A-Level
A-Level Physics deepens the knowledge you’ve gained in your GCSE. You’ll cover core principles in more depth than ever before.
During the course, you’ll look at key components of physics such as radiation, nuclear physics, astrophysics and more.
As well as cover units in waves, mass, black holes and the constituent of atoms.
You’ll be able to test your understanding of these components with the practical elements provided in the course. The practical elements include:
- Using apparatus to record a range of measurements
- Design, construct and check circuits
- Use a laser or light source to investigate the properties of light
- Use ionising radiation, including detectors.
This course is designed in line with the AQA specification to prepare you for your A-Level exams. Your exams will include multiple-choice, short and long answer questions.
You’ll be expected to demonstrate your knowledge of key scientific theory and apply them accurately to the context provided.
Note that you will have to book your practical exams in advance of your written exams, so take that into account when planning your studies.
Upon completion of the course, you will have the knowledge required to study Physics at a higher level.
Getting Started
Studying an A-Level through an online learning provider allows you to study from the comfort of your own home. You won’t have to worry about getting to class or covering shifts as it doesn’t impact your existing commitments. And there are no classes to attend.
Note that while your course material can be studied online, your practical lessons will be carried out in a classroom setting so will need to be booked in advance.
Therefore you’re able to structure your learning in a way that suits you. You’re in complete control of when you learn and how you learn as well as how fast (or slow) you learn. The only specific deadline to work towards is your exam – exam sittings are held once per year in May or June.
However, just because it’s a more independent learning style doesn’t mean you’re alone. At Stonebridge Associated Colleges we have tutors to guide you through your learning. They will be on hand 24/7 to help when needed and give constructive feedback on your assignments.
Ultimately this allows you to study and complete your A-Level in Physics in a manner that doesn’t impact your lifestyle or commitments so your approach to learning is never hindered.
There are no entry requirements, but a GCSE or iGCSE in this subject would be beneficial. You must complete at least 50% of the course and pass the associated assignments before you are eligible to be entered for the exams.
Average completion timeframe
The average time it takes to complete the course is 2 years.
Assessment requirements
The assessment consists of written exams and a 4 day practical assessment
Placement or Practical required?
Practical assessments will be organised at the time of the exam booking. Labratories that host the practicals are available in Bolton, Birmingham and London. Assessments are on set dates, Monday to Thursday.
If placement or practical required, when?
Practical assessments must be completed before sitting the written exams.
Exams required
Tutors & Exams will provide the exam centre and oversee the examination process.
Membership required?
No membership is required to enrol on this course.
Certification Timeframe
You can expect to receive your certificate 3 months after receiving the result.
Extension Rules
£40 for six months, maximum of twice. If expired more than six months ago, or have already had two extensions, then they need to restart the course and pay again.
All course fees, inclusive of all payment plans including our Premium Credit Limited option, must be settled before certification can be ordered.
*You will have access to the course for 24 months.
As you progress through your course, you will study the following modules:
- Introduction to Physics
- Measurements and their errors
- Particles and radiation
- Waves
- Mechanics and materials
- Electricity
- Further mechanics and thermal physics
- Fields and their consequences
- Nuclear physics
- Astrophysics
- Medical physics
- Engineering physics
- Turning points in physics
- Electronics
At the end of each unit there is an assignment to complete. Once this has been completed and submitted to your tutor he or she will respond with your grade as well as detailed feedback. Following successful completion of each unit you’ll be exam ready!
All instalment plans must be paid and up to date before an exam can be booked. In addition, exams cannot be booked for dates before the final payment is successfully made. For example, if two monthly payments are due in the future, an exam can be booked, but the exam date will be after the final payment is received.
Tutors & Exams
Tutors and Exams provides examination and assessment facilities primarily aimed at private and home educated candidates.
Tutors and Exams have examination centres located around the country: Bolton, Coventry, Doncaster, St Neots Cambridgeshire, High Wycombe, Taunton, Wimbledon and Belfast. All are approved for examination delivery by the Joint Council for Qualifications (JCQ).
In addition to their examination centres they also have dedicated science laboratories based in Birmingham, Bolton and Sheffield with the ability to deliver A-Level science practicals all year round, and access to another two science laboratories located in London.
