Business Studies
We aim to develop all students' appreciation and interest in the field of Business. We want to give them the confidence, independence and resilience to be able to progress to further education, training or employment.
We want to make them the entrepreneurs of the future and throughout our lessons develop their skills to be successful employees. This is embedded in our curriculum through the discussion of employment legislation as well as understanding the drawbacks and benefits to sources of finance, such as mortgages, for their future.
We also want to develop written and verbal analysis and evaluation skills, which are transferrable across a variety of different environments.
