In Year 12 you will be given an introduction to key business areas: marketing, operations, finance and human resource management. This includes a special focus on decision making – particularly how decisions made in one area can affect the rest of the business. In Year 13 you will progress to investigate the strategic decisions that all businesses have to make. The focus this year is more upon large scale and global business activity. It complements a number of other A level subjects, such as Politics, Geography, Math's, Law, Psychology and Sociology. Business/ Management courses are amongst the most popular degree applications nationally. Alongside this, there are numerous alternative routes into employment via an apprenticeship for example. Having an A level in Business is a useful passport to getting onto courses such as; Accounting, Management, Languages, Math's, Consultancy, Law and Marketing, to name a few.
8 or more GCSE passes at grade 5, equivalent or better including Math's and English Grade 6 in English (Literature or Language) and a Grade 5 in Mathematics. If you have studied Business at KS4, ideally you would have a Grade 6 or Level 2 Merit (BTEC L2)
A‐level assessment consists of three two hour written exams taken at the end of year 13. Each exam will be worth a third of the A‐level. All three papers will draw on material from the whole course, and will feature a range of question styles including multiple choice questions, short answer questions, essay questions, data response questions and case studies.
