Pupils are given opportunities to develop skills such as managing information, problem solving, decision making and working with others.
 
Business Studies aims to prepare students for life-long learning by implementing classroom strategies such as setting open ended challenges and promoting independent learning.  It is a valuable subject for the following careers: Accountancy, Banking, Marketing, Law, Public Relations, Teaching, Personnel, Business Management and Administration.
