Given everyone ends up working for a business of some description, understanding the world of business is an essential skill. It is a hands on and practical subject, using real world examples to illustrate the theories. Barely a day goes by without a big Business story, from the collapse of seemingly indestructible high street brands to the everincreasing dominance of online retailing. These events are always incorporated into the way we learn the subject. The subject is extended by considering the role Business plays, for better or worse, in modern society, and thus covers issues like the environment, sweat shops and other ethical concerns. It offers students the chance to develop a huge range of skills, from basic accounting to motivational techniques. If choosing between the BTEC and A-Level, you would consider whether your learning style is more suited to ongoing assessments (BTEC) or final exams (A-Level)
