Physics 2025 track

Do not fork the catalogue yet

Keep one Physics catalogue: the 2017 course examined through HSC 2027. Do not fork a 2025 track until Year 11 students in 2027 need it. When that year arrives, add a second subject id rather than rewriting 2017 items.

Current course: Physics Stage 6 (2017), examined through HSC 2027. Next course: Physics 11–12 (2025), Year 11 from Term 1 2027, first HSC HSC 2028. Maths stays on Mathematics Standard 11–12 (2024).
