The course aims to provide a stimulating and rewarding programme of study that inspires curiosity about the physical world and develops a deep understanding of the laws that govern it. Students are encouraged to think critically, apply their knowledge to unfamiliar situations and develop the confidence to tackle complex problems. Practical investigation is an integral part of the course, helping students build resilience, analytical thinking and independence. We have high expectations of our students and seek to equip them with the creativity, intuition and employability skills needed to thrive in an ever-changing world, whether they pursue further study, apprenticeships or careers in science, engineering and beyond.
