at Bradley Stoke Community School, Bristol · school or sixth form
What the college says
Why does Steven Gerrard earn so much more than any of the Bristol City players? Why has the price of bread increased so much recently and why is everyone talking about the price of oil? What is meant by the credit crunch? What is ‘Recession’ and what can the government do to help the UK economy? Why do the politicians argue over the best way to solve the problems in the economy, and why don’t they just let the banks print more money? How does the European Union effect our country? If you are interested in these kinds of issues, then studying Economics should help you to find answers to some of these questions.
