Have you ever wondered why most people conform to social norms? What does it mean to be abnormal? Why do we forget things? How does your relationship with your parents affect future relationships? How is the brain structured? Psychology is the scientific study of behaviour and the brain. Through evaluation and analysis of scientific theories, the Psychology A Level course will allow you to form your answers to these questions and more. Studying psychology at St Dunstan's means being encouraged to develop independence of thought, where analysis of research studies and theories forms the basis of classroom discussion. With tailored support and frequent exposure to exam material, your essay writing and maths skills will improve, and you will become experts in applying your psychological understanding to the real world.

A grade 7 or above in Biology or a grade 7,7 in Double Science. Students should also be confident in data handling and essay writing skills.
