Could this be retweeted to every AQA GCSE Science teacher?
One of 12 GCSE Physics Practice Papers - ideal for students aiming for grade 7-9. All with written worked solutions and a video explaining the answers.
I've just written a 106 page AQA GCSE Physics Revision Guide, suitable for Trilogy and Triple Science!
Completely FREE to download, just go to this page and you'll be sent an email:
468 GCSE Physics videos now on my GCSE website - including 59 practical videos I've made since December.
Find them all here, with downloadable results tables and sample data:
And now onto A Level...
Science teachers, want free access to either my GCSE or A Level website this summer so you can have a look around? Just message me on Twitter (or email through my website) and I'll send you login details for August.
RT to spread the love around.
42 GCSE Worksheets, 42 answer sheets and 42 video explanations now live on my website.
Just the Forces (blue) section to finish off now with the last 18 worksheets to upload.
For anyone who has recently started making videos, you'll know how rewarding and time consuming this is! I've now added links to all my GCSE videos from one page so you can find everything on my website.

I’ve now realised that all my previous Year 9 classes have been lying to me.
Helping my daughter in Year 7 with her maths has meant that I’ve seen they learn about averages, lines of best fit, using a protractor etc.
Somehow this knowledge escapes then in Science!
For the 80% of teachers who teach AQA Science, your students will find this really useful!
AQA 2023 Trilogy (Physics) Paper 1 Revision in 35 Minutes
Do share and RT widely!
I'll be starting my first of many livestreams for 2021 tonight. GCSE at 6pm and A Level at 6.30pm - every Monday from now until summer exams/assessments.
Full timetable at and with topics for the next 6 weeks all up.
A Level Physics Definitions, based on real mark schemes from the last few years. Download them at:
There will probably be some terms missed out and there could be some improvements to the wording but it's a start - and useful for your students this week!
A new video everyday until 23rd June 2022, alternating between GCSE and A Level problems.
Tell your students - they’re on TikTok (and maybe also YouTube
#Shorts
). Just search for ‘PhysicsOnline’.
GCSE Worksheets - these are taking ages to check the wording, the numerical values, the formatting (and the LEGO). I'll add completed ones to my site, and have answers and Word versions for teachers to edit in the future.
You had one job AQA!
Everyone will get 9 marks for the question about hair straighteners. Although the question was about power, the context was parallel circuits.
If you have classes taking AQA Physics Paper 1 this week, I have made these videos based on the Advance Information for foundation/higher and trilogy/triple physics.
RT and share the love
All expenses paid trip to France, to the large synchrotron in Grenoble- open to Year 12 female physics students. Find out more and pass this on to people in your class who may be interested:
@RogersHistory
I make GCSE and A Level Physics videos, including a lot of material on YouTube.
Much more control over my time and still a very rewarding career.
Now everyone is frantically planning online lessons for their students, this is what I have made during the last two years (after leaving my role as Head of Science). Please share and RT to spread the love
Would you like to have a good look at all my GCSE or A Level resources? Hundreds of extra videos not on YouTube.
Just email hello

and I'll send you log in details for free access for the next few weeks.

A Level Physics Paper 2 feedback from this morning from students so far:
OCR A Paper 2 much better than Paper 1.
AQA Paper 2 not well received!
Edexcel Paper 2 pretty fair.

@YouTube
This is pretty amazing.
Since I started my YouTube channel I’ve now had over 1,000,000 hours of watch time! I never that that would happen when I first started making physics videos in the evening.
If you’ve ever seen them, which are the ones you remember?
The stats are telling about student motivation to study.
I released these all last week.The smallest audience is the Higher Triple Physics but it’s had the most views. Not many views of the foundation video…
Teacher input needed. I've just been updating my A Level website with many new improvements (no YouTube adverts, 186 new pages, mobile friendly etc)
Have I made any mistakes?
Does anyone work in a school where they are the only specialist Physics teacher for GCSE? Or you don't have a single Physics teacher for GCSE (purely Biologists and Chemists).
If so then I'd love to hear from you - I have a plan...
Just send me a message.
#chatphysics
I'm writing a short guide for students about starting A Level Physics. This will be free to download from my website.
I'd love to include some advice from teachers (I'll keep it anonymous). What advice would you have for those about to go into Year 12?
Which books did I buy with my own money for my daughter who’s just starting Year 9?
I’ve been impressed with the Physics one before, just added Bio and Chem to the mix today.

To support your students over the next week, EVERYTHING for both GCSE and A level is FREE to access on my websites (11th - 15th Jan).
If you'd like to access this for the rest of the year then School Subscriptions are available...
Please Share and RT
A link to all YouTube URLs for current GCSE videos:
It includes which exam board it is suitable for:
Y - Double/Combined/Trilogy
YH - Higher Tier
P - Physics (Triple) only
PH - Physics Higher Tier
R - Recommended
Wow! 76 YouTube livestreams, along with worksheets and supporting pre-recorded videos, are available to replay on my website.
Perfect for all your students who will still be assessed on the same amount of content in 2021!

How did your students find Physics A Level Paper 3?
OCR A and B students seemed to like it, Edexcel (with a slapped chicken?) was great. Not as much love for AQA at the moment.
Quick and simple 12 page guide for your students starting A Level Physics.
Including lots of amazing advice from students and many of you teachers on Twitter / X.
Download a copy at:
Despite being 26 years old now, this is my favourite book I’ve read recently when learning about the physics for the AQA Turning Points option. Highly recommended and still available in hard copy.
After a teacher requested this there are now GCSE Isaac Physics questions now throughout GCSE Physics Online!
33 Game Boards with suitable questions selected and linked from the right section of my website.

For the first time I'll be hosting the wonderful
#chatphysics
session this Thursday at 7pm - looking at Physics CPD and how you manage to keep up with your subject knowledge.
Have a break from marking and chat then
@chatphysics
I don’t usually share personal stuff on Twitter, but I’ll be travelling to Scotland this week for my grandads funeral.
Amongst many other things he was the original Mr Matheson who taught Science - a tough act to follow!
I tend not to post too much political stuff on Twitter, but although I am immensely proud of my achievements there and those I worked with at the time, the current situation in Afghanistan at the moment is terrible.
I fear for the people who can't leave.
So excited that this has just arrived from
@Gratnells
Building a science lab for filming future practical videos - worth the investment so I can continue to make the best content for students and teachers.
If you teach physics then it's well worth signing up to the new PTNC thing put together by
@Hookean1
after the IOP stopped funding the old PTNC email list.
Now funded for the next year!
My thoughts go out to all the teachers in the next few weeks as parental disappointment (and anger) at grades is directed at the teachers who submitted them, rather than the government for lowering them.
A photo by Mr Matheson (senior).
‘I managed to point the camera at the Pole Star so other stars appear to circle round. No post processing at all of the image - my Olympus camera has a function called Live Composite which stacks up all the individual images for you.’
Book 3 is now available. Daily questions for A level physics students to work through.
If they have the book and do most of the questions I reckon they will perform very well in their summer exams!
I’d be really grateful if some more schools could subscribe to my websites so I can justify buying this!
Latest ‘business’ purchase. Video about energy transfers tenuously linked to this coming soon!
I think I did it - after a lot of trail and error...
GCSE Required Practical with a ripple tank where students can measure the frequency and wavelength to calculate the wave speed (rather than using time and distance).
More GCSE practical videos finished today - density, IV characteristics, springs and rubber!
All with instructions, results tables and a full analysis.
