Economics is offered in the Sixth Form as an A-level course. Groups will typically be six to ten in number and the Edexcel examination specification is followed. The course provides a combination of micro-economic and macro-economic content, drawing on local, national and international contexts, and aims to provoke an interest in economic concepts and theories and their value and limitations in explaining real-world phenomena. Economic students will also develop analytical and quantitative skills, together with qualities and attitudes that will equip them for the challenges, opportunities and responsibilities of adult and working life.
At least 5 GCSEs at grades 9-5, grade 6 in English Language or Literature, and Mathematics. A-level Economics does not involve a large amount of Mathematics, although a reasonable aptitude for logical thinkin g and ability to consider several variables and how they interact is important. Ability to develop precision writing skills is essential for achieving a high A-level grade.
