The Pearson Edexcel Level 3 Advanced GCE in Business is structured into four themes and consists of three externally examined papers. Pupils are introduced to business in Themes 1 and 2 through building knowledge of core business concepts and applying them to business contexts to develop a broad understanding of how businesses work. Breadth and depth of knowledge and understanding, with applications to a wider range of contexts and more complex business information, are developed in Themes 3 and 4, requiring pupils to take a more strategic view of business opportunities and issues. Pupils are encouraged to use an enquiring, critical and thoughtful approach to the study of business, to understand that business behaviour can be studied from a range of perspectives and to challenge assumptions.
GCSE grade 6 in English and Maths is recommended. GCSE Business/Economics, although an advantage, is not required. To avoid overlap in Enterprise subjects, you can only choose to study one of Business Studies, Level 3 Applied Business Studies and Economics at Bethany Sixth Form.
Assessment consists of three externally assessed examination papers. Questions are data response and open ended essay style.
