Learners will be introduced to the dynamic business environment and the importance of entrepreneurial activity in creating business opportunities and sustaining business growth. The focus of our A level Business specification is to nurture an enthusiasm for studying business using contemporary contexts, allowing learners to develop an appreciation of the strategic, complex and inter-related nature of business issues from a local to global perspective. Students will cover a wide range of business content and concepts through the study of four units. Two will be studied in the first year, learning about business opportunities and business functions. In the second year, students will learn about business analysis and strategy and business in a changing world.
There is no requirement to have studied Business at Level 2, but a minimum grade 5 in Mathematics and English is essential. If studies at GCSE, then a grade 5 is required.
The qualification is assessed through three externally set papers: Paper 1: Business Opportunities – 15% of final grade Paper 2: Business Functions – 25% of final grade Paper 3: Business Analysis and Strategy 30% of final grade Paper 4: Business in a Changing World – 30% of final grade
