Physics and Philosophy/ Physics at Cambridge HELP WITH SUPERCURRICULARS
I’m interested in either of these courses at Cambridge, but would appreciate someone explaining what P&P would entail
I want to start some supercurriculars, and would appreciate any activities/ book recommendations/ summer schools, as well as any relevant work experience, as I need to come up with something to present to my form tutor this term
I have just started y11, on track for all 9s at GCSE right now 👍👍

Cambridge doesn't offer physics and philosophy, and physics at Cambridge is only available through natural sciences or maths. Do you mean Oxford...?
You don't need work experience for either physics or philosophy at any uni. Wider reading is sufficient for "supercurricular" activities, although participating in science fairs (for physics) or essay competitions (for philosophy) may also be something to explore.

You don't need work experience for either course at any university. In fact the only courses you need work experience for are health professions courses or public service qualifying degrees (e.g. teaching, social work).
If your school has work experience requirements that's internal to the school and you can do it anywhere.
