British Physics Olympiad Challenge Success

3rd November 20

Well done to the entrants of this year’s BPhO challenge.  Nine students sat the paper which is based on the common curriculum for Year 13 students. It is an introduction to problem solving for some students and it is designed to stretch thinking into the applications and ideas, preparing students for further work, or for interview practice.  To find out more visit the BPhO website.

We are thrilled that five of the nine students received the highest certificate, Merit, with all students demonstrating a strong performance.  Particular mention goes to Juan who scored 44 out of 50, which is amazing for a Year 12 student.

We look forward to seeing how the students perform in the BPhO Olympiad Round 1 which is on Friday 13th November.  Good luck everyone.
