The pace of change in the world of work creates a need for workers of the future to be adaptable and flexible. '85 per cent of the jobs that will exist in 2030 haven't even been invented yet'* and this A Level Business course, with its blend of quantitative and qualitative aspects delivered through real-world case studies, will give you the basic 'toolkit' and fundamentals for life in business in its widest sense. Students will investigate firms such as Zara, Next, Cadbury and Pret a Manger and will appraise their competitive positions in terms of finance, marketing, operations and human resources, along with the external competitive environment nationally and globally. The Edexcel A Level in Business comprises four core themes: marketing and people (HR); managing business activities (finance and the impact of external influences); business decisions and strategy, and globalised business. A pre-released context in the autumn outlines the content for the third examination paper. Themes in recent years have included UK entertainment, the holiday market and the chocolate and confectionery market.
• At least 5 GCSEs at either 8 or 9 and three grades at 7. • GCSE grade 8 or 9 in your chosen A Level subjects. • GCSE grade 7 or above in Mathematics and English Language. • For two science A Levels, or Maths alongside science, at least a grade 8 will be needed in both subjects. It is expected that candidates achieve a minimum of grade 7 in Mathematics IGCSE and grade 8 in GCSE Business if taken.
