The educational approach of COMPOS largely borrows from the tutorial system of Oxbridge. That is, in addition to regular webinars and homework assignments, each participant will be assigned a tutor, who will mark their homework and give them weekly 1-hour online tutorials in a group of 5-6 people.

The curriculum largely follows the school syllabus but presents the material at a higher and deeper level, concentrating on problem solving skills, thereby preparing the students for higher education and eventually a career in physics and mathematics.

COMPOS is free of charge. Please pass this information to Y11/Y12 students and teachers you work with. We are particularly interested in students from low income households (pupil premium), but we aim to accept all motivated candidates.
