For physics term 1 the main focus will be on kinematics (learning about displacement, velocity, acceleration) and using these to solve problems. For physics term 2, we will mainly be learning about dynamics (forces and solving problems involving forces).This content is the most conceptual parts from year 10 and year 11, and heavily carries on into year 12. Many questions in year 12 rely on a solid understanding of these concepts to do well. These concepts will also be useful for anyone who wants to do olympiads.
Chemistry:
In term 1 we will learn some important concepts such as bonding, intermolecular forces for the first half of term. These concepts are more understanding bsaed, and less calculations based. In the second half of term, we will start some stoichiometry (which is mainly doing calculations and balancing equations).
Again, these are important concepts from year 10 and 11. Having an important understanding of these is also important for olympiads/year 12.
