The 6-week performance programme that teaches the systems and patterns behind GCSE Physics — so the grade finally reflects what your child knows.
Mock results that don't reflect how hard they've been working
They know the content but can't translate it into marks
Physics (or the physics section of Combined Science) is the sticking point
Calculation marks disappearing even when the method seems right
6-mark answers written in full paragraphs that score 1 or 2
You're not sure whether school support alone will be enough
Most revision focuses on content. Re-reading notes, watching videos, doing more past papers. For many students that's not the problem — they know the Physics. They just haven't been taught the systems and patterns that sit underneath the questions.
"GCSE Physics questions follow predictable patterns. Once a student learns to recognise them — the way a 6-marker is structured, the language an examiner rewards, the maths traps that appear every year — the whole paper looks different. That's what I teach."
How mark schemes award marks — what examiners are trained to look for
The 6-mark answer framework — repeatable for every extended question
Command word patterns — what explain, describe and evaluate actually require
Required practical patterns — the same structures appear every year
Maths mark patterns — where calculation marks go and how to stop losing them
High-frequency topic patterns — the questions that appear on every paper
Decode the mark scheme system. Learn how examiners are trained to award marks — and why students who "know it" still lose them.
AQA: 79% scored 0 on imprecise languageA single repeatable framework for the highest-value questions. Students leave with a pattern they can apply to any extended answer on any topic.
AQA: 90% Foundation scored 0 on extended responseUnits, rearranging equations, show-your-working structure. The patterns behind calculation questions — and where marks disappear.
AQA: multi-step calculations flagged both tiersThese questions follow a consistent structure every year. Once students see the pattern, this 15% of the paper becomes highly predictable.
AQA: 85% Higher scored 0 on uncertainty questionsThe topics that appear on every paper. Ruthlessly strategic — focused on application, not re-teaching content, using AQA's own mark loss data.
AQA: energy, forces, radioactivity — highest mark lossTimed paper before the session, live mark and review using all the systems from weeks 1–5, personal revision priority plan to take forward.
Putting all 5 systems togetherPhysics is roughly a third of your Combined Science result. Improving here has an outsized impact on the final grade — and the patterns that unlock marks are the same regardless of tier.
Triple Physics students often know more than their grade shows. The gap is almost always exam technique, not content — and that's exactly what this programme targets.

Capable students. Hard-working students. Students who understand Physics in the classroom — but whose exam results don't show it. After years leading science in secondary schools, I built Physics Decoded to fix exactly that.
After years teaching and leading science at secondary level, the question I hear most from parents isn't about revision strategies or content gaps. It's this: "Why doesn't my child's ability show up in their results?"
The answer, in almost every case, is the same. It's not intelligence. It's not effort. It's that nobody has explicitly taught them how the exam system works — how mark schemes award marks, what command words actually require, how to structure an extended answer, where calculation marks go.
These are learnable skills. Teachable in weeks, not months. And once a student sees the patterns that sit underneath GCSE Physics questions, the whole paper looks different.
Physics Decoded is built around that insight. Six weeks. Five core systems. Real AQA data showing exactly where marks are lost — and a structured approach to winning them back.
Physics is the subject where the gap between knowledge and grade is widest. More than any other GCSE science, Physics students routinely know more than their results suggest. The marking is more formulaic than people realise. The question patterns are more predictable than they appear.
That makes Physics the subject where targeted, technique-focused coaching has the fastest visible impact. Students who feel hopeless about Physics in October can feel genuinely confident by January — not because they've learned dramatically more content, but because they've learned how to apply what they already know.
That transformation is what Physics Decoded is designed to create.
"The grade gap in Physics is almost never about intelligence. It's about systems, patterns, and knowing what examiners reward. Physics Decoded teaches all of it."
