We aim to develop

in students studying Key Stage 4 and 5 Business Studies an understanding of Business organisations, the markets they serve and the process of adding value. This involves a consideration of the internal working and management of firms and the process of decision making in a dynamic external environment. Students should be aware that business behaviour can be studied from the perspectives of a range of stakeholders including customers, managers, creditors, owners/shareholders and employees. In addition, students will be aware of the economic, environmental, ethical, governmental, legal, social and technological issues associated with business activity.
