Course summary

How does the memory work? Is eye-witness testimony reliable? How important are the first attachments a baby forms? What causes stress and how does it actually affect a person physiologically? Is it ‘evil’ people who carry out evil acts, or can there be something about a particular situation that could lead even ‘normal’ people to become perpetrators of evil? How can minority groups bring about change in society? These are some of the questions posed during the A-Level course, but as a Science, Psychology is not particularly interested in the individual students’ personal opinions or anecdotal evidence. Students who take Psychology need a combination of curiosity and scepticism, and an interest in human nature.

Entry requirements

We expect pupils joining us at the Sixth Form level to have attained five or more GCSEs at grade C or above. Experience has shown us that this level of prior attainment indicates a pupil who can cope with the demands of our Sixth Form curriculum. We will, however, consider each case on its merits.
