What the college says

The AQA Psychology course is a linear A-Level designed to be studied over two years with all final examinations culminating in the summer of the second year. The course provides the opportunity for students to develop a broad understanding of different psychological topics, methods and approaches. Students will study ten modules such as, the nature of human memory, attachment in children, social influence and social change, biopsychology, clinical psychology, relationships, schizophrenia and aggression. There is also a significant component that focuses on research methods which defines psychology as a scientific discipline concerned with methodological, ethical, gender and cultural issues. It is both an extremely interesting and very demanding course that enables students to understand many aspects of human nature and how they are studied.
