The Edexcel Economics B course examines real world problems in order to create a genuine understanding of the important concepts in economics. It offers a distinctly different approach with economic concepts and theories taught through real business contexts. The economic theory means students understand economic issues and events and the business contexts help them to understand the strategies employed by businesses in responding to these events. It has updated content with an introduction to the financial sector and the role of banks, the investigation of consumer behaviour, business decisions and government objectives and policies.
You should have at least six good Pass Grades at GCSE Level to cope successfully with any A Level course. Ideally, Grades 6 in Mathematics and in an essay-based subject such as History or Religious Studies are usually necessary. Key skills to be developed during the course are communication, numeracy, problem solving, information technology and teamwork.
