Course summary

To put it bluntly, why wouldn’t you? If there ever has been a ‘right time’ to study Economics, it is now. The economic effects of huge change and uncertainty are all around us. Knowing how the world actually works can help you make sense of everything that is going on. Everyone in the world is connected to everyone else, at some level. What happens elsewhere affects you. What you do affects others. Economics will help you understand and appreciate the complexity of the modern world. We will look at big, important issues such as BREXIT, the economic effects of the pandemic and the success of the government’s response to it.

Entry requirements

Economics will challenge and develop key skills which will support your work in the subject and across your other subjects as well. The key skills we seek to develop include structured writing, research skills, prioritising information, analytical skills, evaluative skills, supporting arguments with data and evidence and making balanced judgements. You will be expected to read about Economics and think about Economics far beyond the classroom lessons. A good grade at GCSE English and Maths will be a good starting point to develop these skills.
