Business
Our department strives to inspire our students to pursue either, a Higher education qualification, career in business or their very own business.
We also aim to provide them with the necessary attributes to be even more employable and successful in the future - such as enabling them with the tools to further develop their confidence, independence, team working, problem solving, presentational and entrepreneurial skills.

KS4
In Key Stage 4, the GCSE Business specification (Edexcel) is designed to encourage students to think and act like entrepreneurs. From their very first lesson they start with a business simulation that can provoke thought and discussion through a variety of different activities. This ensures that they actively participate in a variety of situations designed to stimulate their imagination and to encourage them to make decisions based upon their knowledge and understanding of the subject:
- Theme 1: Investigating small business
- Theme 2: Building a business
