Psychology

Psychology wasn’t on our radar at all until I saw a post on social media about some psychology online courses for home educators. Roll forward two years, Aggie has now done a GCSE in it and wants to do it for A level!

The psychology KS3 courses that started all of this off are run by online tutor Charlotte of Survive Succeed Achieve. She does regular Psych 101 courses which run weekly for four or six weeks and each course addresses one particular aspect of psychology. We did courses on neuropsychology and forensics and it was clear early on that Aggie really liked both the subject and Charlotte! You can buy recordings from all of her previous courses on her shop under “webinar recordings”.

Aggie decided she’d like to take psychology further and do the GCSE. It was therefore a no-brainer that we’d use the pre-recorded course created by Charlotte to work towards OCR Psychology GCSE. So, Aggie started the course in August 2023 and sat it in June 2024. We await her results…..

We’re pretty much on the countdown to our summer break now so we’re on a mission to tick lots of things off our to do lists. But of course we also need to celebrate a birthday and get out and about too!

Lancaster Castle

Lancaster Castle has a ridiculous amount of history over ten centuries and is a remarkable place to visit.
