Which exam boards do you support for Physics?

AQA GCSE (8463 Triple Award and 8464 Combined Science) and AQA A-Level (7407 AS and 7408 A2). OCR and Edexcel support is on the roadmap.

Triple Award or Combined Science — which does it support?

Both. Choose Triple (8463) for the full physics spec including Space, or Combined Science (8464) for the trimmed scope without Space and with reduced sub-topics. The generator adjusts content scope accordingly.

What does it produce for a physics lesson?

Full lesson slide decks with a retrieval starter, direct instruction, worked examples, tiered practice questions, and an exit ticket. Interactive revision games are also available. Worksheets are also live, in two formats: practice (tiered ★–★★★ questions) and exam-style (real command words with marks per question), with an optional answer sheet and PDF export.

Does it handle equations and units properly?

Yes. Equations are rendered correctly, units are checked, and numerical answers use appropriate significant figures. Mark schemes reflect how AQA actually awards marks.

Can it produce required practical resources?

Yes. You can generate lesson slides specifically for the required practicals, including method, analysis, and the specific skills examiners test. Worksheet versions are available too — practice or exam-style, exported as PDF.

Can I stretch my higher tier students?

Questions go from ★ (spec minimum) to ★★★★★ (exam challenge). For Higher tier you'll get questions that push beyond recall into application and evaluation.

What export formats are available?

Lesson slides are interactive and browser-based — you present and teach them live (timers, graphs, diagrams and circuits) rather than exporting a static file. Worksheets download as PDF, with an optional answer sheet.

Will my department get a discount?

The Department tier covers 6 teachers for £349/year — roughly £58 per teacher per year. Email hello@printmylesson.co.uk to get set up.

★

A series circuit has a 12 V cell connected to a 4 Ω resistor and a 2 Ω resistor. Calculate the current in the circuit.

★★

Two resistors, 3 Ω and 6 Ω, are connected in parallel across a 6 V supply. Calculate the current through the 3 Ω resistor.

★★★

A 15 Ω resistor and a second resistor are connected in series across a 9 V supply. The current in the circuit is 0.3 A. Calculate the resistance of the second resistor.

Spec alignment

Built on the spec.
Not on guesswork.

When you type a physics topic, you want a resource that reflects your class — not a generic AI's best guess at what 'Newton's Second Law' means. Every resource is built against a structured database of AQA spec points — GCSE (8463) and A-Level (7407 AS / 7408 A2). Type the topic, and the generator knows whether you mean 4.5.2 at GCSE or 3.4.1.2 at A-Level, adjusting depth, command words, and maths accordingly.

Why it matters: Generic AI tools write plausible-looking resources that miss spec points, use the wrong command words, or pitch the wrong tier. Physics resources from Print My Lesson are built on a structured database of spec points, so every question, slide, and mark scheme is anchored to what students will actually be assessed on.

Who it's for

For physics teachers who are sick of generic AI.

If you've tried a generic chatbot to write a physics question, you already know the problem. Plausible-looking, often wrong, and you end up re-doing the maths anyway. Print My Lesson was built because that wasn't good enough.

✓AQA GCSE Physics teachers — Triple Award (8463) and Combined Science (8464)

✓AQA A-Level Physics teachers — AS (7407) and full A-Level (7408)

✓HODs building shared resource libraries across their physics team

✓NQTs and ECTs who need exam-aligned scaffolding they can trust

✓Experienced teachers covering unfamiliar topics (required practicals, A2 optional modules)

✓Cover supervisors and non-specialists who need something classroom-ready quickly

What teachers ask first

The questions
you're already thinking.

Will it actually save me time?

Yes — once you've used it a couple of times and know how it works. The first generation might take you a few extra minutes while you get the feel for it; after that, a full lesson takes under two minutes.

Does it know the difference between GCSE and A-Level?

Yes. You select the level when generating, and the content scope adjusts to match — GCSE doesn't get A-Level-only topics, A-Level resources go into appropriate depth.

What about required practicals?

Required practicals are part of the spec coverage. Generate a lesson on a specific RP and you'll get the practical context, not just generic theory.

Can I teach the same topic across both tiers?

Yes. Generate once for Foundation and once for Higher from the same topic — the resources are produced separately so they reflect the different tier expectations.

Can I set the lesson length?

Yes — choose from 45, 50, 55, 60, 70, or 75 minutes when generating a lesson slide deck. The resource is scoped and timed to fit.

Honest about where we fit

When to use us.
When not to.

We're not right for every job. Here's an honest picture of where other tools win and where we do.

Use them

Generic AI chatbots

Good for brainstorming explanations or rephrasing concepts. Less reliable for spec-accurate physics — they don't know which tier you're teaching, can be loose with units and command words.

Big resource libraries

Useful when you want to browse and pick something existing. The trade-off is generality — resources weren't made for your specific class, tier, or lesson length.
