The emphasis of the course is on applying knowledge and understanding rather than just acquiring knowledge, thereby developing students transferable skills of analysis, evaluation and critical thinking. There is a large scientific component to the course which will promote students skills in solving scientific problems and students will come to understand how scientists investigate phenomena in their attempts to explain the world about us. This qualification is linear. Linear means that students will sit all the AS exams at the end of their AS course and all the A level exams at the end of their A level course. The AS and A level specifications have been designed to cover the core areas of Psychology and be fully co-teachable within the first year of study and will also allow students to switch between AS and A level during the first year if necessary.
