About AQA and GCSE Foundation Tier

A General Certificate of Secondary Education, or GCSE, is an academic credential at the secondary level that is highly regarded by colleges, employers, and educational institutions around the world. The qualification largely entails studying a subject's theory while also requiring some research and, in certain cases, practical work. The GCSE foundation tier is ideal for students who find the higher tier challenging and are aiming for grades 1-5 in their GCSE.

The goal of the awarding authority known as AQA, an academic and general qualification, is to improve students' knowledge and skills. It establishes standards, conducts exams at the GCSE, AS, and A Level in a range of subjects, and awards credentials for employment. These certifications are highly valued by employers and colleges around the world.

About Official Exam, Assessment & Certification

In order to assess the knowledge and skills that students are learning, this GCSE Physics Course tests students through multiple online examinations in between lectures. After successfully completing each module, students participate in an interactive assessment process that gauges their understanding of each topic and their ability to put their newfound knowledge and credentials to use in real-world situations. When applying the underlying knowledge to get ready for tests, you may also review your progress at the conclusion of the session and continue to practise whenever you choose.

When you will be ready for the official exam there is an additional registration fee of £345 (Exd. VAT) to book the official exam.

Assessment Structure

The AQA GCSE Physics Foundation Tier consists of two paper-based and practical assessments.

Paper 1

  • Topics covered: Energy, electricity, particle model of matter and atomic structure
  • Exam duration: 1 Hour 45 minutes written exam
  • Marks: 100
  • Weight: 50% of GCSE
  • Question type: multiple choice, structured, closed short answer and open response

Paper 2

  • Topic: Forces, waves, magnetism and electromagnetism, and space physics
  • Exam duration: 1 Hour 45 minutes written exam
  • Marks: 100
  • Weight: 50% of GCSE
  • Question type: multiple choice, structured, closed short answer and open response

Practical Assessment

The knowledge and comprehension that students have acquired from completing a variety of practical activities and demonstrations offered in this course will be tested in the written exam questions. At least 15% of the qualification's overall marks will come from these questions. Most of these questions will additionally concentrate on students' capacity for independent research and the successful application of their knowledge in real-world scenarios.

Valuable Certification

Upon successful completion of the official exam, you will receive an AQA-accredited certification that is highly regarded and globally recognised. With the foundation tier paper, you will receive a grade ranging from 1 to 5.

You will receive a U(unclassified) if you don't get at least a grade of 1. Students who fail to meet the requirements of a grade level for an authorised grade 3 will have their records recorded as U (unclassified), and they won't be given a certificate of completion.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
