Economics

Our overall vision is to inspire our students to become interested in how economies operate. We wish to give them the knowledge and skills, as well as the confidence and experience in Economics, 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 minimum their “minimum expected grade”, at the national examinations.
• For students to gain confidence in how economies operate 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.
