Intent
To arm students with knowledge and understanding of how the world of business works. To also provide the entrepreneurial skills to prepare them for working and studying in the future.
The biggest change for 2021/202 to the Business Studies Department:
The Business Studies department has evolved to ensure the students are provided the opportunities to increase their employability capital exponentially. Students will also spend time focussed on the recruitment process of employment linked to examination knowledge whilst also giving them practical experience of how to research, apply, and interview for jobs.
What are we most proud of?
As a department we are proud of the extended opportunities for reading and oracy practices. The texts chosen for the curriculum provide a number of opportunities for reflection and discussion between peers. The extra-curricular activities provide students a chance to demonstrate their entrepreneurial skills and show an understanding of how to grow a business.
