Psychology A Level
at Kennet School, Thatcham · school or sixth form
What the college says
In Psychology we take our natural curiosity into why people behave as they do and investigate it in a scientific manner. We investigate and evaluate theories and look at both classic and modern studies that have been carried out by psychologists. Some of their conclusions reinforce what we have learned as a result of our own experiences. Other findings are more surprising and you will be able to apply what you learn to what you see in the world around you.
