This course outline is intended as a general guide for a WEAC / GCSE ‘O’ Level Physics course scheduled across twenty sessions. Please note that the pace and depth of content covered in each session might need to be adjusted based on the student’s specific needs and prior knowledge. This layout should provide a robust framework for students with a basic understanding of physics. However, the actual curriculum could vary for beginners or more advanced students.

The structure of the course can be flexibly adjusted to cater to the unique requirements of each student or group, ensuring that all learners can navigate the course successfully and reach their full potential. This personalised approach ensures students are appropriately supported and challenged throughout their journey.

This proposed course outline covers the main topics in a WEAC / GCSE ‘O’ Level Physics syllabus. However, it should be tailored based on the specific examination board and any recent changes to the syllabus. Regular assessments of student progress should be carried out, and the course structure should be adjusted accordingly to address any areas of difficulty.
