You are introduced to business through building your knowledge of core concepts and applying them in context to develop a broad understanding of how businesses work. You are encouraged to use an enquiring, critical and thoughtful approach to your studies, to understand that business behaviour can be studied from a range of perspectives and to challenge assumptions. The course is split into four themes. Themes 1 and 2 are covered during Lower Sixth and themes 3 and 4 during Upper Sixth. We invite guest speakers from the world of work and wherever possible go out to visit businesses in person. Theme 1: Marketing and People Theme 2: Managing Business activities Theme 3: Business Decisions and Strategy Theme 4: Global Business
Entry to Sixth Form is by application and is dependent on the candidate achieving the minimum academic requirement of five GCSE grades at C or above (at least three at Grade B or above). GCSE English and Maths grade 6 required.
