This combination of academic challenge and practical focus makes the prospect of studying A Level Business highly appealing. You will learn about businesses and the way they operate in today’s society. You will investigate problems which real businesses are currently facing and use your initiative to develop possible solutions. You will study a wide variety of topics including: enterprise, human resources, environmental factors, marketing, accounting and finance, production, ethics, international trade, the digital age, law, economics, change management. Emphasis throughout the entire course is on problem solving and decision-making. You will learn how to use a wide range of contemporary business tools and models and apply them to today’s businesses.
The A level course is examined by three separate exam papers, each two hours long: Unit 1 consists of multiple-choice questions and longer written answers based around an unseen case study of a ‘small’ business. Unit 2 consists of short response questions and longer written answers based around an unseen case study of a UK ‘national’ business. Unit 3 exam is based around the case study of a ‘global’ business and includes both data response questions as well as longer written answers.
