Studying your GCSE
Embarking on a GCSE Psychology course is to commit to the study of the human mind and behaviour.

During the course of your GCSE Psychology you will study memory, perception, communication and social influence. You will have the opportunity to explore neuropsychology, psychological problems and the impact on the human mind.
By the end of the course you will be able to demonstrate knowledge and understanding of psychological ideas, processes and theories. You will be able to evaluate psychological ideas and make judgement or draw conclusions based on learned skills.

This allows you to work your studies around your work and family commitments. So you never have to choose between learning and spending time with the kids.
