Course Introduction
A-Level Psychology is a fascinating opportunity to delve into the human mind and explore why we behave the way we do. It is one of the most interesting and pioneering fields in the world, especially with the greater awareness and importance being placed on mental health. This is the perfect time to learn how the human mind works.
During your studies, you will develop a deep understanding of key psychological concepts and theories, from the fundamentals of memory and attachment to treating psychopathology. This recognised qualification will help you work towards your academic and professional goals in areas like counselling, therapy, social work, or human resources.
Course Info
This A-Level Psychology online course follows the comprehensive AQA syllabus, ensuring you receive a structured and recognised qualification. The course content is organised into three main exam papers, covering core topics, advanced approaches, and specific optional modules.
You will conduct independent research, analyse and interpret psychological concepts, and evaluate treatments, allowing you to progress in a structured and positive way. You will learn at your own pace from home, supported by a dedicated tutor.
Exams
The qualification is awarded by AQA, one of the UK’s most respected exam boards, known for its consistent assessment and strong support for learners.
You will sit three written exam papers to achieve your A-Level Psychology qualification. The exams contain a mix of multiple choice, short answer, and extended writing questions. Throughout your papers, you will be expected to demonstrate your knowledge and understanding of psychological concepts, theories, and research methods.
Exams take place once per year in May or June. Your exams are included with this course bundle, and you will sit them at one of our nationwide exam centres.
