I am a software developer who wants to learn more about how Computers work at a lower level. I did GCSE Electronics 16 years ago.
I have bought an Electronics starter kit, which contains this component. The shop assistant described it as a Breadboard but after a bit of Googling I believe it is a PCB as described here.
It was part of a starter kit. Do I have to solder components onto this board in order to test circuits or can I just plug them in like with a breadboard?
I realise that this is a basic question but I have spent some time Googling.

Yes, that's a PCB that you solder components to. You'll need to get a breadboard; small ones are cheap and widely available.
