Psychology

Course summary

Psychology is the scientific study of the mind and how we can attempt to explain behaviour. It is a popular subject at A Level due to young adulthood being a time of striving to understand the various aspects of human life which contribute to establishing the make up of an individual. Students are given the opportunity to research how people process and apply information about themselves and others from diverse perspectives which include elements of both nature and nurture. Practical investigations, alongside the study of psychological theories and applications to the real world, are all included within the course structure.
