A variety of methods will be used. Each student will receive a course textbook. The department has a wide range of resources ranging from books to online resources, which will be used to supplement theory. The library obtains a variety of business related journals which students are encouraged to use. Students are expected to undertake a minimum of two homework tasks per week; however, they will vary in form. Wherever possible these will include a need for reference to be made to real life business scenarios. This will take a minimum of 5 hours per week.
- For the course, students should have obtained 5 GCSEs at grade 4 or higher. There is no requirement to have studied Business Studies at GCSE previously, although students who have studied it are expected to have shown progression and effort towards their target grade. Those that have not studied it before may be required to do some extra reading around lesson topic areas beforehand. - Individual subject minimum GCSE requirements (these apply in addition to our Sixth Form entry criteria of 5 GCSEs at grade 4 or above including English Language and Maths*)
The course is linear. At the end of the two-year course students will sit three two-hour exams consisting of methods such as multiple choice, data response short and essay style written questions.
