A collection of six PowerPoint presentations for the Medical Physics unit of A-level OCR Physics A, matched to the Oxford OCR A-Level Physics A textbook.
Please note that the TES software that produces thumbnail images doesn’t always seem to handle background images in PPT slides very well. If the thumbnails look odd on your display, that is not how they really look!

One of a bundle of presentations on different aspects of nuclear physics.
Please note that TES’s software doesn’t always seem to generate accurate thumbnail images of PPTs with background images, so if the preview images look odd on your display they aren’t indicative of what the slides actually look like.
This starter pack breaks AQA's GCSE Physics specification down into 7 coherent and logically ordered units. The specification statements have been ordered to reflect a pedagogically-sound sequence of delivery. Time allocations for delivery are indicated (presented as a useful 2-year long-term planner) so that the course spans approximately 140 lessons. The 20-lesson first unit is deliberately very accessible and is suitable for delivery in Year 9 if you wish to start KS4 early.
This long-term planning stage is the necessary starting point for developing your own scheme of work that suits your context, students and teaching staff. With the long-term planning done, you can focus on medium- and short-term planning of the lessons themselves.
A summary of the AQA GCSE Physics "Atomic Structure" topic, presented in a student-friendly and attractive form. Students can use it as a concise revision checklist or as a "what to expect" introduction. Teachers can use it as a more useful starting point than the original specification for writing a medium-term plan of the scheme of work for this topic.
The order of the statements has been altered and the wording changed in places compared to the specification, to reflect how the concepts might be better taught and learnt. Higher Tier and Physics-only concepts are clearly highlighted.

A short training presentation for teachers. It introduces Classroom to those unfamiliar to it, and also, when used with a school’s whole staff (experienced with Classroom or not), it can help to bring consistency to implementation and thereby make the students’ experience of using Classroom a little smoother.
This updated version reflects the changes made to Classroom in August 2018.

Summaries of the AQA GCSE Physics "Energy", "Particle model of matter" and "Forces" topics, presented in a student-friendly and attractive form. Students can use them as concise revision checklists or as "what to expect" introductions. Teachers can use them as a more useful starting point than the original specification for writing a medium-term plan of the scheme of work for these topics.
The order of the statements has been altered and the wording changed in places compared to the specification, to reflect how the concepts might be better taught and learnt. In particular, some of the "Energy" and "Particles" topics have been relocated to the "Forces" topic, where they make more sense alongside related concepts.
Required practicals and equations are emphasised and Higher Tier and Physics-only concepts are clearly highlighted.
