Business
Have you ever wondered how Ryanair can sell its plane tickets for a fraction of the price charged by other airlines such as B.A. and still be a highly profitable business? Or what causes once successful companies such as Gap to go into decline, whilst White Fox has suddenly become so fashionable? How will the current economic environment shape business strategy, plans and finance from here?
Why study Business?
A level Business explores models, theories and techniques which develop a comprehensive understanding of the business world from both academic and practical perspectives.
You will gain an understanding of business in a range of contexts and develop a critical understanding of organisations and their ability to meet society's needs and wants. You will build a range of skills including decision making, problem solving, and critical analysis and you will be exposed to some of the ethical dilemmas and responsibilities faced by organisations and individuals. By the end of the course, you will have all the basics to give foundations to your entrepreneurial flare, so you could set up your own business or continue to study Business and management at undergraduate and post graduate level, perhaps with a side hustle to help fund your studies and lifestyle.
