Business

Our business and enterprise curriculum gives all of our students an understanding and insight into the world of work, looking at how businesses are established, run and how they benefit society. The business curriculum allows students to understand and look at: the economy, its people, how businesses operate and how they can run businesses ethically. We provide our students with opportunities to develop their enterprise skills and creativity and develop their understanding of finance in a business.
