Psychology A level

Psychology is a popular subject which is attractive to students because it develops a range of valuable skills, including critical analysis, independent thinking and research. These skills are particularly relevant to young people and are transferable to further study and the workplace.

The AQA qualification offers students an engaging and stimulating introduction to the study of psychology, combined with the academic integrity and skills that Higher Education and employers value.

As a growing subject, psychology offers a wide range of future careers: health, clinical, forensics, neuro, occupational, education, sport and exercise, academia, research and teaching. Further information into the field of psychology can be found on the British Psychological Society (BPS) website.
