  • Abstract
    There has been an urgent need to create new A-level physics courses that will attract more students to the subject. The Institute of Physics, in partnership with the OCR Awarding Body, has developed one such course-Advancing Physics-that aims to make physics as attractive as possible to as many as possible, whilst remaining true to the soul of the subject. This article provides a flavour of the course and the thinking behind it
