This week Principal Dr Drew awarded our high achieving physics students certificates for the AS Physics Challenge
The Challenge is part of the British Physics Olympiad competitions run by Oxford University. It consists of a very demanding one-hour paper comprising questions that stretch lateral thinking skills and require candidates to apply fundamental physical principles to novel situations. Fifteen Year 12 students volunteered to take part, obtaining four silver and five bronze certificates. Warm congratulations to all those who took part.
