London Colleges
 

Guys

Any idea's about colleges, preferably in the south east of London, who provide evening or weekend based A Level courses? More specifically, Physics AS.

I've looked at Bromley College and Orpington College, but they just do full time and I'm working. Also tried Open University, but they don't do AS Levels, just HND or above :(


Helpy.

Ta.

Croydon College is apparently pretty good...

Re: London Colleges
 

Nope, just full time courses.

Ok. So I appreciate that there will be a requirement for experiments and practical lessons, but surely somewhere must do this on a weekend or evening.

...which will amuse me immensely when I watch the Learn Direct offices slowly drift off the face of the planet, or perhaps simply cease to exist completely.

Re: London Colleges
 

why the hell do you want to do physics?


and you may be better off looking for HNC's that part time AS levels in physics, cant really see there being a lot of damand either way really though :/

Re: London Colleges
 

I forgot to ask - why the hell do you want to do a physics A - level???

Re: London Colleges
 

He said AS dude...

Re: London Colleges
 

Um, because as far as I'm aware I need an A-Level to get onto an HNC. Will check though.

Either way, thoughts of progression (for something to do in spare time...)

A Level Physics --> A Level Mathematics --> OU Degree in Physics --> Possibly OU Degree in Mathematics --> Masters then PhD in Physics or similar discipline.

I know for the OU ones I'm going to need to do the pre-requisites, but this is just a basic outline plan at the moment.

Hope this helps dude.

Got the website from google (http://www.uk-courses.co.uk)

Re: London Colleges
 

Birkbeck do part-time courses, although I'm not sure if they do A-Level.

Re: London Colleges
 

one of our engineers is doing a part time course at Lewisham college...
And one of our supervisors did a part-time degree at Southbank Uni...

Cheers Tom, that was much help.

Ta to the other suggestions too - will make sure I look into them as well :)
