A-Level Business Studies helps students develop a critical understanding of organisations, the markets they serve and the process of adding value. It enables students to be aware that business behaviour can be studied from the perspectives of a range of stakeholders and will help them to acquire a range of skills including decision-making and problem-solving. In Business Studies you will need to be able to develop your own answers and analyse why your view point is the correct one. There is no right or wrong answer if you can justify your views. You are actively encouraged to disagree with other members of the class to create discussions and debates.
A GCSE in Business Studies at grade 6 is preferred, but candidates will be accepted with a 5 in GCSE English Language or Maths.
You will be assessed by three external exams at the end of the second year. Paper 1,2 and 3 are all synoptic and will assess all content from throughout the course. Each paper is 2 hours in length and will contain a maximum of 100 marks. Students will be graded out of a total of 300 marks across the papers.
