Course summary

Business studies provides students with the opportunity to explore a wide variety of modules from business law to accounting, marketing to logistics. The breadth of the course enables students to get a fully-rounded view of the business world. We love teaching this subject as it is around us every day and in everything we do, providing so many real and interesting case studies to call upon, many of which our students are already engaged with. Taking A-level business studies is a great thing to do if you have aspirations of one day becoming self-employed or in a managerial position/leadership role. It can give you the tools and information required to understand how businesses are created, managed, and ultimately become successful. Business studies is a fun, informative subject that bridges the science and art gap nicely. If you like the idea of the leadership aspects of a job or working for yourself, then perhaps taking an A-level in business studies is a good idea.
