Psychology is the second most popular uni course that was applied for in 2020 UCAS, and A-level psychology has been the most popular subject taken by girls, and the second most popular subject taken by boys+girls (forget the data of which year, I think either in 2019 or 2020).
However, A-level psychology is not a facilitating subject and is not required by most, if not all, psychology courses. Let me copy my old post and paste it here (but note that the typical offer and the requirements may have been changed)
Psychology courses at different uni have different emphases (unless otherwise specified, typical offer A*AA): Oxford's Experimental Psychology is very (neuro)science based, while Cambridge offers Psychological and Behaviour Sciences. LSE's is also Psychological and Behaviour Science. UCL's Division of Psychology and Language Sciences offers a course in Psychology and a course in Psychology and Language Sciences (typical offer of the latter AAA).
If targeting at G5, one should take at least one from Biol, Chem, Math, Phys, or Psychology. As a matter of fact, statistics is very important to psychology and so taking Math (the most popular A-level taken by boys+girls) is a wise choice. Biol probably is also a good preparation for the science component of psychology. (KCL, which is also quite neuroscience based, explicitly says that Biol and Math are the preferred subjects.) The third A-level may be another science subject or an essay-based subject (including Psychology). Bath does not require any science subject in A level.
Going to Scotland (4-year curriculum, no matter BSc or MA), at St Andrews (typical offer AAB), one can read psychology alongside science subjects in BSc Psychology or alongside arts subjects in MA Psychology. (Note that it is well-known that an MA from Scotland is NOT a masters degree.) At Edinburgh (typical offer AAA--ABB, one from Biol/Chem/CompSci/Geog/Geol/Math/Phys/Psy), one can read BSc Psychology or MA Psychology and Business, MA Psy and Economics (A-level Math is required), MA Psy and Linguistics, MA Philosophy and Psy, or MA Sociology and Psy.
To conclude, I would suggest that Math and Biol plus a subject that one is good at (targeting at A*) and interested in will form a good preparation for reading Psychology at any prestigious university.
