Welcome to our new blog, which will support your planning and teaching in the new Psychology course 2025. I am Laura Swash, and I have taught IB Diploma Psychology in different international schools for over twenty years. I now live on a tiny Portuguese island, where I continue to teach and develop materials online. I am really pleased with the opportunity to support teachers through this blog.

This blog is for you

The first few blog posts will help you with:

• Planning your two-year or one-year course
• Mapping the concepts and content into the contexts 
• Practical teaching ideas

There will be references to the IB Diploma Psychology guide and the specimen papers. 

Remember, we want to provide what you need. Feel free to contact me through the blog with requests for topics so we can work together to help you design and teach a coherent, relevant, and interesting Psychology course.
