Teaching without curricula for interest and for skillsSummary
Collaborative work between schools has opened up the opportunity to teach students Psychology who would not normally encounter it until post-16. This has been in the form of Psychology master classes and a summer school and a residential course. This has allowed us to teach psychology of interest without adhering to a set curriculum. It has life-changing effects on many students who have been inspired to study Psychology and even to teach it themselves. The model set up in York, UK has been recognised as best practise.
