A Level Psychology

Psychology takes a  scientific approach to the study of the human behaviour. Students will develop an  analytical view of different theoretical explanations for behaviour and debate their relative merits and disadvantages.

Within Psychology we encourage students to question and explore different behavioural phenomena through the use of experiments and other research methods. For example, students have the opportunity to take part in different experiments on memory.

Year 12 student

I'm currently studying Psychology, English Literature and Language, Sociology and Business Studies. I hope to do a degree in Criminology with Psychology, as I'm interested in learning about different aspects of criminal behaviour, and I'd like to work as a forensic psychologist or profiler.

I enjoy studying at Coombe Sixth Form because the teachers support you to ensure you fulfil your potential.
