THE TEAM AND FACILITIES:
The Psychology department continues to grow and flourish with a vision to enhance the learning and enjoyment of this wonderful subject. We are a dedicated and passionate team with lots of teaching experience. Psychology is one of the most popular subject choices at A Level and students are taught in an environment that fosters group discussion to facilitate further their argumentative discursive skillsets.
Psychology A level builds on students’ experiences from GSCE and we look for students who not only have a zest for human behaviour but have enjoyed Science and English GCSE. Year 12 and 13 will follow the AQA Exam board.
