Business Studies:Single

Course summary

The study of A level Business allows an individual to develop a critical understanding of firms, the customers they serve and how they operate. Students will learn to consider the internal workings and management of organisations and, in particular, the process of decision making in a dynamic environment. They will also learn to appreciate economic, environmental, ethical, governmental, legal, social and technological issues associated with business activity. In keeping with the Benedictine character of the school, we encourage students to favour ethical approaches to business which promote corporate social responsibility, as opposed to the unfettered pursuit of short-term profit.
