Examinations in 2026–2028 · Version 2 (December 2025)

Focus on speed, velocity, acceleration, and motion graphs; 2D, calculus, and game models are optional enrichment.

Mastery checklist

Know what success looks like.

  1. 01

    Choose a coordinate direction and state the initial conditions before calculating.

  2. 02

    Separate perpendicular components when the motion is two-dimensional.

  3. 03

    Check the sign, unit, and physical size of every displacement, velocity, and acceleration result.

Exam lens

Build, apply, check.

1.2 Motion sits inside Motion, forces and energy. Build the concept first, then practise selecting a model, showing working, and checking the final result.
