This course will build upon this fundamental knowledge to increase students’ conceptual understanding of energy, force and motion involving the living and non-living world.


Physics Preliminary aims to provide a learning experience through which students will:

  • attain knowledge & understanding about fundamental concepts related to natural phenomena & the historical development of these concepts and how they are applied to personal, social, economic, technological and environmental situations.

  • develop understanding of models and concepts and the explanation of physics terms; collection and organisation of information to problem-solving; and use of simple communication skills.

  • develop positive attitudes towards the study of physics recognizing the importance to critical evaluation of scientific theories and opinions.
