Course summary

A two-year course designed to give an introduction to this popular degree subject. Psychology is an excellent subject to study because it not only teaches a number of transferable skills, it also gives an insight into the way people think. The mind is something intangible that exists within our brain; an unseen process of enzymes, chemicals and electric currents. But why is it that some people suffer from stress or mental illness? Or that others are considered abnormal for deviating from social norms? Psychology looks at questions such as these and more. It’s a fascinating science with cutting-edge research with real-world applications that you are bound to find interesting. Pupils selecting this option are likely to be studying one or more Science A Levels or Mathematics.

Entry requirements

Applicants are required to achieve a minimum of Grade 6 in six subjects at GCSE or iGCSE, however, candidates intending to study A Level Sciences or Languages are required to achieve a minimum of Grade 7, with Grade 8 required for Maths. For candidates not following either a curriculum in GCSE or iGCSE, they must meet the equivalent standards. For applicants where English is not their first language before applying, we require a recent UKiset test result. We will only proceed with an application where the Common European Framework Reference (CEFR) Score is C1 across all disciplines.
