Business Studies:Single

Course summary

Business is an eclectic subject drawing upon a variety of disciplines and subject areas to help develop decision making skills in pupils. Essentially, it is a study of the business environment on the one hand (such influences as the law, government policy and global economic trends) and the internal organisation and dynamics of business on the other. The latter involves focusing on the four key functional areas of: marketing, human resource management, operations management, and accounting and finance and constitutes the major part of the syllabus. Much of the teaching on this course is pupil-centred, including case studies and a growth in knowledge of the business world.
