About BPhO
The British Physics Olympiad was founded in 1982 with the aim of selecting and coaching a team to attend an International Physics Olympiad. Last year there were some 60,000 school students in the UK engaged in the competitions from Year 10 upwards, with the dual aim of building students' confidence in physics through their participation in national physics competitions, whilst challenging the problem solvers through the challenge competitions. For more information on these, past papers and resources visit: www.bpho.org.uk(link is external).
The Department of Physics is a longstanding supporter of the British Physics Olympiad (BPhO), promoting the development of problem-solving skills in physics.
