Coverage. All four components of the current DP Psychology syllabus are represented: the Core (Approaches to Understanding Behaviour), all four Contexts (Health & Well-being, Human Development, Human Relationships, and Learning & Cognition), the HL Extensions (Culture, Data Analysis & Interpretation, Internal Assessment, Motivation, and Technology), and six standalone Concept lessons. The biological, cognitive, and sociocultural approaches are developed in the Core and then applied systematically across the Contexts and HL Extensions.

How the lessons work. Each lesson is built around a specific subtopic and its associated key concept — Evidence, Bias, Cognition, Perspectives, Change, and others — with explicit learning objectives, command-term focus, and structured tasks that move from knowledge and comprehension (AO1) through application and analysis (AO2–AO3) to evaluation (AO4). Every lesson ships with a lesson plan, a student worksheet, and a mark scheme.

Assessment-ready. Exam-style questions are embedded throughout, aligned to the short-answer and extended-response demands of the DP Psychology papers. HL lessons address the additional requirements of Paper 2 and the Internal Assessment research proposal, with dedicated lessons on research methodology, data analysis, and ethical reflexivity.
