Business Studies

The Business Department’s overall vision is to inspire our students to become interested in how the world of work operates. We wish to give them the knowledge and skills, as well as the confidence and experience in Business, which we would wish our own children would receive if they were taking the subject at school.

Our objectives are:

• For students to gain the knowledge and skills to be able to achieve, at least their “minimum expected grade” in the national examinations.
• For students to gain confidence in how the world of work operates and to obtain some of the critical skills that are required in order to prosper in their future working lives.
• To foster a broader interest in current affairs, and how it affects organisations and people’s working lives, that will remain an interest for them in later life.
