A Level Psychology

Course summary

Psychology is the study of human behaviour and is therefore directly relevant to everyday life. It is also a very interesting subject as it focuses on why people behave as they do. For example, what causes anorexia, or why do we sleep, how do we measure intelligence and why are emotions useful? If you have an interest in why people behave in the way they do, then this is the course for you! Remember, Psychology is a Science subject and so you will be expected to undertake practical projects and learn about how to carry out your own research.
