Physics is taught as a separate subject throughout the school. In Years 7–9, pupils follow a bespoke course that extends beyond the National Curriculum, supported by independent practical work in specialist laboratories using modern technology, including data loggers and electronic sensors.
Pupils represent the School in national competitions, including the Physics Challenge and the British Physics Olympiad, and the subject provides strong preparation for a wide range of scientific, technical and analytical degree courses.
We are saddened to hear the news of the closure of Durham High School.
We understand that this will be a worrying and uncertain time for pupils, their families and staff. If your family has been affected, and you would like to discuss options for your child’s education, our Admissions Team is here to provide advice and support, and to answer any questions you may have.
