Sixth Form (A Levels)
Psychology
Description
At Cambridge Home School Online, we teach an independent A Level Psychology curriculum. Students learn a range of psychological theories, concepts, standpoints, approaches, and research methodologies. They get a chance to expand their knowledge and form critical connections between everyday life and psychological findings.
Our MA/MSc/PhD qualified teachers build a secure, strong foundation. This is imperative. Shortly afterwards, new knowledge is constructed atop. Students develop four critical skills: interpretation, analysis, application, and evaluation. They also understand the importance of ethics, morality, and empathy in psychology.
When presented with an argument or situation, our students confidently develop an effective corrective approach and back it up with their theoretical knowledge. Students also develop strong communication skills. Over the years, our A Level Psychology students have continued to secure top grades. Today, they’re studying psychology in university and pursuing successful careers in this field.
By focusing on building each student’s knowledge and understanding in the subject, we enable them to systematically and independently apply their skills and insight. Students become adept at correctly analysing and evaluating psychological scenarios and issues. This skill accompanies them as they pursue a higher education or start their professional life as a psychologist, psychotherapist, or counsellor.
Assessment
We offer a range of assessments during our live lessons. These include summative tests, worksheets, pop quizzes, group activities, and more. Using these assignments, our teachers assess each student’s skills and knowledge.
Homework
Homework is given at the end of each week. Students get a chance to polish their skills and cover more ground. We plan homework around a range of different topics and subtopics, taking special care to cover everything in the syllabus.
Reporting
Parents are given 24/7 access to their children’s coursework. We also maintain an open line of communication between parents and teachers to ensure complete transparency. Additionally, we hold 3 parent-teacher consultations each year, one in every term. Parents can also set up consultations with teachers at mutually convenient times.

Examination Centres
Parents shoulder the responsibility of arranging their child’s IGCSE examinations at their local registered examination centre. At Cambridge Home School Online, we teach students from different countries across the globe. It’s not practical for our school to manage each student’s local exam registration or offer a single venue for students to sit their examinations.
We presently have students from the UK, Europe, Africa, Central Asia, and the Middle East. Keeping this geographical diverseness in mind, we are not registered with Cambridge International Examinations. However, we have partnered with numerous examination centres registered with CIE, OCR, Edexcel, and AQA.
