Introduction
The subject comprises of six relatively large modules, taught in some kind of random rotational pattern by Mr Archer, Mr Jackson, Mrs Donnelly and the brand spanking new Mr Wilkinson. These are:
- Mechanics and Radioactivity
- Thermal and Electical Physics
- Astrophysics
- Circular Motion; Photoelectric Effect and Waves
- Fields and Capacitors
- Synoptic and Particle Accelerators
The majority of these topics are also covered in GCSE physics, hence the expression "my GCSE students can do this" comes up a lot.
Room 9
At A-Level, Physics lessons are usually delivered from room 9, a science lab in the corner of the balcony. This room used to contain three 'comfy stools', much fought over and treasured. Now, only one remains, and the contest for said stool is so vicious that Channel 5 is investigating the television rights. The programme's chalked to come between the news and the porn. Simon Kroll is particularly competitive in the stool race, presumbly due to his large posterior.
