Psychology - Post GCSE

Welcome to Psychology 2021 at the King’s School

Welcome to your AQA Psychology Course at The King’s school. We would like you to conduct a little background research into what will be for most of you, (I presume), a brand new subject.

Had you been able to attend an induction session in School, you would have been delivered a presentation which can be downloaded here


Task

  • We would like you to research (using the internet or any other resources you may have) what the subject of Psychology is.

  • You might want to look at it’s history, definitions and/or specialisms within it. It is entirely up to you how you approach this – there is no right or wrong!

  • It does not matter how you ‘lay it out’ – it could be a poster or just an essay with headings. The key thing is its informative, well researched and (if possible) contains images/pictures. It is an opportunity for you to show off your creative abilities.
