Why do we have a recession? Can anything be done about it? Is there such a thing as a free lunch? Why are Premiership footballers paid so much more than doctors? Does the Chancellor know what he's doing? Think you could do better? So, study Economics. Economics at King’s is a rewarding intellectual experience, offering highly marketable skills in a way that is both stimulating and analytically rigorous.
Students considering transfer to King’s Sixth Form are required to meet the entry requirements of an average of grade 6 or higher across eight GCSE subjects, with a minimum of a grade 5 in both Mathematics and English Language (university matriculation requirements). Most subjects recommend a grade 7 - 9 in a subject to be studied at A Level, and this is compulsory for Mathematics and Science subjects. In addition, subjects with a large mathematical content, such as Economics, require a minimum of grade 7 in Mathematics. This is an excellent subject for the numerate, literate and able student. It combines well with most subjects, although we would not generally advise students to take both Economics and Business. GCSE Mathematics at grade 7 or above is recommended, not because of significant mathematical content but as an indication of analytical ability.
Students will study the Edexcel specification, examined via three exam papers: • Paper 1: Markets & business behaviour • Paper 2: The national & global economy • Paper 3: Microeconomics & Macroeconomics
