The course covers a combination of microeconomic and macroeconomic content drawing on local, national and international contexts. It develops a critical approach to economic models, and applies them to a range of contexts, particularly focusing on the market economy and the role of the government in addressing market failure. Students will select, interpret and use appropriate data from a range of sources. They will develop an understanding of economic concepts and theories and consideration of current economic issues, problems and institutions that affect everyday life.
Previous knowledge of the subject is not required. Success at A Level will be enhanced if students have a genuine interest in current affairs and GCSEs in Mathematics and English at Grade 6 or above.
