Course summary

Have you ever wondered Why Adele and Andy Murray earn more than the Prime Minister? Why Woolworths went bust even though it was profitable? Why news media put so much stress on interest rates? How Primark can sell clothes so cheaply? Why the PlayStation4 was launched with bugs in the system? Our A Level Business qualification stimulates and encourages students’ interest in how business works. It fosters an understanding of business operations in a variety of contexts and helps students develop a range of relevant generic skills and ways of thinking. It is not just a theoretical subject, it is about real life. This combination of academic challenge and practical focus makes the prospect of studying A Level Business highly appealing.
