AS level Business begins with an introduction to the world of business before progressing to consider issues associated with management and leadership and each of the main functional areas, specifically Marketing, Operations, Finance and Human Resources. This is then assessed by two examinations. The A-level consolidates the AS programme of study and considers business strategy including its identification and implementation. At all stages students are encouraged to draw from current business problems and practice.
Entry to THS Sixth Form is subject to five or more GCSEs being achieved at grade 5 or above, including grade 6s in those subjects chosen for A-level. For alternative qualifications, decisions regarding offers of places will be taken on an individual basis.
At the end of Year 12, students take two AS examinations, both 1 hour 30 minutes. The full A-level is assessed at the end of Year 13 by three papers, each two hours long. Questions on all examination papers can come from topics across the full specification.
