Pearson Edexcel GCSE Combined Science Paper 6 Higher 2025 Qp

Download the official Pearson Edexcel GCSE (9–1) Combined Science Paper 6 Physics Higher Tier question paper from the Summer 2025 examination series (1SC0/2PH). This authentic examiner-issued Higher Tier Physics paper contains advanced GCSE Physics questions covering gravitational potential energy, kinetic energy, velocity calculations, power generation, mains electricity, fuses, domestic wiring, electrical cables, changes of state, latent heat, density calculations, magnetism, induced magnets, magnetic flux density, Hooke’s law, spring constants, free-body force diagrams, resultant forces, electrical resistance, current variation using variable resistors, and investigations involving series and parallel circuits.

This Combined Science Higher Tier Physics paper is ideal for students preparing for the 2026 GCSE Combined Science examinations, classroom mock exams, intervention sessions, timed revision practice, tutoring, homeschooling, and independent self-study using official Pearson Edexcel assessment materials.

The examination includes practical and analytical questions involving trolley-runway energy transfers, stair-climbing power calculations, fuse safety explanations, wax cooling graphs, density calculations, magnetic-field investigations using nails and plastic strips, spring-extension graphs, energy stored in springs, resultant-force vector diagrams, resistance calculations, and series-versus-parallel circuit investigations using voltmeters and ammeters.

Students are required to interpret graphs, analyse investigations, complete multi-step calculations, explain physical processes, evaluate experimental methods, draw force diagrams, and apply Higher Tier Physics equations throughout the paper.

The paper was sat on Monday 16 June 2025 during the morning session, lasted 1 hour 10 minutes, carried 60 marks, and required the use of a calculator, ruler, and the enclosed Physics equation booklet.

This official Pearson Edexcel GCSE Combined Science Higher Tier Physics paper is designed for Year 10 and Year 11 students preparing for Summer 2026 GCSE examinations, Higher Tier Combined Science learners aiming for top GCSE grades, GCSE resit candidates, and independent learners studying the Pearson Edexcel Combined Science specification.

It is also highly valuable for Physics teachers, science departments, tutors, intervention coordinators, revision academies, homeschooling parents, and classroom assessors who require authentic Pearson Edexcel examination materials for mock assessments, classroom revision, homework tasks, and examiner-standard GCSE Physics preparation.
