Do you enjoy: • exploring and evaluating alternative ways to solve problems? • working with numbers to solve problems? • keeping up to date with business news across the world? Whether you hope to start your own business one day or are interested in learning more about how businesses work and the challenges they face, this course will help you to develop valuable transferable skills and commercial awareness that will prepare you for studying at university or moving into the world of work. Business is a modern qualification that maintains an academic approach to business, developing analytical and evaluative skills. Students will learn how businesses are started and managed, including the development of enterprise skills. We have a thriving and growing department with steady results over the last 10 years. The department is housed largely in IT classrooms and has its own set of class iPads and Kindle Fires that allow research tasks to be conducted more fluidly. We have run trips to London and China to bring the subject alive and organise guest speakers from the Bank of England to really engage the students in the real world application of the subject.
• Paper 1: data response and essay questions on marketing, people and global businesses. • Paper 2: data response and essay questions on business activities, decisions and strategy. • Paper 3: a research task before the exam. The data response and essay questions are linked to the context you will research.
