British Physics Olympiad 2022

British Physics Olympiad 2022 Senior School

The British Physics Olympiad provides a series of competitions to stretch and challenge talented young physicists. Following the increasing popularity of the competition among our pupils, the senior school Physics department took part in four of these competitions: the Intermediate Physics Challenge for Year 11, the Senior Physics Challenge for Year 12, the Physics Challenge for Year 13 and the BPhO Round 1 for Year 13.

A number of pupils embraced the challenge and won awards and certificates filling us, yet again, with pride!

In each one of these competitions, top Physics problem-solvers of their age from UK and international schools alike took part, so attaining even a modest mark still includes our pupils in the very top rank of participants.

However, we would like to give a special shout out to:

Meng Xuchen, a Year 11 pupil, for achieving a Gold award in the Intermediate Physics Challenge, awarded only to the top 5.5% out of roughly 2400 contestants, as well as her success in the Senior Physics Challenge, a competition meant for Year 12 pupils!

Liao Yuqian, a Year 12 pupil, for achieving a Gold award in the Senior Physics Challenge, awarded only to the top 8.9% out of roughly 6900 contestants, as well as her successes in the Physics Challenge and BPhO Round 1, competitions meant for Year 13 pupils!
