Psychology

Psychology is an excellent choice for students at Winterstoke Hundred Academy, as it will deepen their understanding of others’ behaviour, enabling them to explain how and why the diverse backgrounds and experiences can and do affect them and their peers every day. This academic subject gives knowledge of psychological issues, research studies, theories and models in a range of topic areas. Psychology includes elements of many other disciplines including Biology, Mathematics, English Language, History and Geography and, as such, complements a wide range of other subject choices.

Students will develop knowledge and evaluation skills to enable them apply Psychology to real world examples of behaviour. At the heart of our psychology courses is a focus on empathy, understanding and tolerance; essential skills for any individual to become a successful member of society.
