What the college says

The GCE in Economics is a thorough examination of core domestic and international economic theory. In Year 12 we cover the founding principles that underpin the running of modern economies; starting with the very basic and progressing to the more advanced. By the end of the first year students will understand the basics of macroeconomic management and will be looking forward to the introduction of the international context. Year 13 is where the world opens up and we begin to consider everything from the core points behind globalisation to the more complex theories behind structural adjustment programs and development economics in LEDCs. This really is a fantastic course which set students up for an active career in market and economic analysis.
