Why we teach Psychology at St Paul's 

We teach psychology as SPA as it covers real-world topics like memory, criminal behaviour, sleep and dreaming, and psychological problems, making the subject feel very relevant to everyday life. The course offers a perfect balance between science and understanding people, combining scientific research methods with the study of emotions, behaviours, and social issues. Edexcel places a strong focus on research skills, teaching you how psychologists design experiments and analyse results — valuable abilities for many future careers. It also helps you develop critical thinking by encouraging you to question theories, compare explanations, and explore complex ideas, which are important skills in almost any field. Finally, the course provides a clear structure, helping students feel more confident when preparing for exams, and it builds a strong foundation for progressing to A-Level Psychology.
