Psychology is the study of mind and behaviour. Psychologists are interested in factors that influence our development, perceptions and experiences, and applying research to settings as varied as clinical practice, schools, the army and television. You will study the core areas of psychology including memory, attachment, psychopathology, biopsychology, research methods, gender and aggression. This syllabus is new for September 2015 but continues to develop skilled valued by Higher Education including critical analysis, independent thinking and research. The course is externally assessed. Three exams are taken: the first as on introductory topics; the second on Psychology in context and the third on issues in Psychology. Psychology A-Level will prepare you for a range of university options and careers which include chartered psychologist (counselling, educational, forensic, clinical, sport and occupational), health and social work, nursing, teaching, police force and human resources. It works well in combination with both sciences and arts subjects and provides a scientific grounding to the study of thought and behaviour.
