Economics is the study of how societies answer the very important questions of what to produce, how to produce and for whom? In our Economics classes we will try to answer these questions and look at Economics from a global perspective. Our aim is to help students use an enquiring, critical and thoughtful approach to the study of Economics. We would also like students to develop an understanding of economic concepts and theories through critical consideration of current economic issues, problems and instructions that affect everyday life.
An interest in, and a desire to study, Economics is essential.
Assessments take place once every half term, and homework is set on a regular basis. A mock examination will take place during the second term, based on the first term’s work, and internal and external examinations will take place in the third term, to be confirmed by the subject teacher. In the second year, final external examination will consist of three papers: Paper 1 (2 hours) relates to themes one and three; Paper 2 (2 hours) relates to themes two and four; Paper 3 (2 hours) relates to all four themes.
