I'm Mrs D. I've been teaching Psychology for over 10 years. I work at an outstanding school, recently rated number 1 state school in the South West.
During my time teaching, I have progressed to Head of Social Sciences, examined for AQA and tutored students.
I have used my experience to curate resources to ensure my students excell in Psychology A Level and want to pass these on to you.
Whether you are a teacher or student I hope you will enjoy using my resources and find them helpful.

Student Feedback Activities
This download contains two key sheets to help when giving feedback to students:
Student tracking sheet.
DIRT reflection sheet (A4 and A5 versions)
Student tracking sheet.
This sheet lives in student folders. On it they track each test / assessment they do. This is a nice visual log for them to track if they are on target or not. It also helps pupils see clearly how well they are doing in different assessments/ topics. They can also log on this sheet their strengths and areas to improve so that they can track these over different assessments too.
DIRT reflection sheet (A4 and A5 versions)
This sheet can be attached to an assessment or given out when work is given back. Students should be allowed a few minutes to fill this in. This sheet gives them time to think about what they did well / not so well and also gives them space to redo a question / part of a question.
Giving students this DIRT time has been shown to help them learn more from feedback and make greater progress towards their goals.
As a teacher of over 10 years at an outstanding school, who has examined and tutored, I have spent time compiling exactly the resources students need to excel in their exams. Now I want to pass these on to you. Whether you are a teacher or student these will help you get ready for the exams.
Excel document set up for you to start tracking all student work.
You can:
Log student names, targets and teaching groups
Identify if students fit in key groups such as SEND or if they have exam access arrangements
Track homework completion
Track folder checks
Log grades from quizzes, tests and mocks.
This spreadsheet does all the hard work of tracking for you, I’ve sorted the formulas and conditional formatting so that you can just input the raw test scores and it will work out most of the hard work for you.
For example:
If you input a score on a test, it will work out the percentage and what this is as a grade (for this it is set to use the harshest AQA Psychology grade boundaries - but you could easily change these to any boundaries you want to use e.g. another subject’s grade boundaries).
It will work out if the student is on, above or below target in each test. It will then colour code this for you so you can visually see if students are on target easily.
When you enter a student as not submitting a homework it will also colour code this orange to enable you to see clearly patterns in missed homework.
As a bonus tab I’ve included a tracker to enable you to remember which tests have been set. I use this whenever I set a past paper. This means I never accidentally set the same test twice.
