If you have the ambition to join one of the big blue chip companies (nationally recognised, well-established and financially sound) or lead a ground breaking social media marketing campaign, improve efficiency in manufacturing or one day start your own business then A-Level Business is the essential first step. A-Level Business looks at what business is and has a clear focus throughout on decision making. It looks at how decisions are made by managers and leaders, in improving marketing, operational, financial and human resource performance. Choosing and analysing the strategic position of a business and managing strategic change is also explored in detail. During the course, students will regularly review news articles, social media sites and specialist publications in order to understand and analyse corporate strategies. The topics lend themselves to studying and engaging with the real business world. A-Level Business will encourage students to follow developments and think critically about contemporary business issues and their impact.
