Coverage. All five themes of the current DP Physics syllabus — from kinematics and thermodynamics through to quantum physics and stellar evolution — are covered across 72 lessons organised into 22 topics. The resources address both the conceptual frameworks and quantitative skills required at every stage of the course, with the nine key concepts woven throughout to support coherent understanding.

How the lessons work. Each lesson follows a clear teaching arc — a hook to surface prior thinking, guided development of theory, structured practice, and an applied or evaluative task — with explicit learning objectives, command-term focus, ATL skill links, and differentiation. Every lesson ships with a lesson plan, a student worksheet, and a mark scheme.

Assessment-ready. Every subtopic ends with exam-style questions matched to the assessment objectives (AO1–AO4), with full mark schemes. Coverage spans the breadth of Paper 1, Paper 2, and Paper 3 demands, equipping students to move fluently between definitions, calculations, graphical analysis, and extended evaluation.
