We are happy for a Year 12 student with no previous knowledge of the subject to join the course, assuming that they have a keen interest in the Business environment and what is being reported in the media. Alongside the course itself, there is an opportunity to join in business competitions such as Young Enterprise which will add to the enjoyment and achievement of students at this level. We direct our efforts towards developing Business students with; critical, creative, and research aptitudes along with profound social commitment and capability to contribute to entrepreneurial and business development.
