Dear Viewers
As you may be aware, Cambridge International has updated the Cambridge IGCSE™ Physics syllabus (0625), with first examinations taking place in 2023. We have updated our resources to fully support you in teaching the revised syllabus and are working with Cambridge International to gain endorsement for this forthcoming series.
Please visit cambridgeinternational.org for information about the current syllabuses and full details of the changes.
The syllabus has been reviewed and revised for first examination in 2023.
You must read the whole syllabus before planning your teaching programme. Changes to syllabus content • The learner attributes have been updated.
• The structure of the subject content has changed to ensure a coherent
topic structure.
• The wording in the learning objectives has been updated to provide
clarity on the depth to which each topic should be taught. Although
the wording will look different in many places, the content to teach
remains largely the same.
• Main topics and sub-topics removed:
– digital electronics
– gas laws
– measurement of temperature
– pressure (removal of learning objectives concerning barometers
and manometers)
– thermal capacity.
• Main topics and sub-topics added:
– absolute scale of temperature
– electromagnetic spectrum (addition of learning objectives
concerning communications)
– use of the kilowatt-hour
– space physics.
• Other sections have had learning objectives added and removed.
However, the overall teaching time still falls within the recommended
guided learning hours.
