Through the Psychology curriculum, students develop fundamental knowledge of key psychological concepts and how these shape human behaviour. Students explore theories and research studies, derived from the key psychological approaches. Students become independent learners in their exploration of human behaviour and are actively engaged in exploring this within real world application. Students develop a love of learning and an understanding of how the mind can influence human behaviour as well as developing our students into well rounded active citizens. Through the study of a broad range of topics such as mental illnesses, aggression and relationships, our students develop a tolerance, awareness and respect towards other individuals. Students are challenged in class to consider alternative ideologies and concepts, as well as how behaviour affects various and diverse cultures and upbringing experiences.
It is expected that students will have achieved at least a Grade 6 in GCSE English and Mathematics. You do not need to have studied Psychology at GCSE in order to take an A-Level course in the subject. It is more important that you should have a lively and enquiring mind, an interest in human behaviour and experience and a desire to explore new ideas. Due to the nature of the course, you need to be able to learn and understand large amounts of material mostly in essay style questions.
Three exams of equal weighting, all taken in Year 13 and each 2 hours long covering all the course units.
