What the college says

The GCE A Level in Business Studies aims to encourage students to investigate different types of organisations in various business sectors and environments, recognising that they face varying degrees of competition. Students learn to identify business problems and then plan appropriate investigations into such problems. They fully develop their understanding of business and enterprise, justifying their decisions based on quantitative and qualitative methods. GCE Business gives learners the knowledge, understanding and skills they need to prepare for employment and higher education. It is a very exciting, dynamic and rewarding subject that can lead to great opportunities in the future.
