G.C.S.E BUSINESS STUDIES

Material produced by: Mr. M. Smidman,
Pontllanfraith Comprehensive School.

This course has been tailor written for the W.J.E.C syllabus but would be applicable to a wide range of syllabi.  It includes the basic information needed for each topic and removes the need for student note taking.  It also includes some supporting assignments, video clips of interviews with people in different positions within businesses, Powerpoint presentations, ‘interesting facts’ web site links, key skills to be gained, examination questions and self and teacher assessment sheets.  This course covers the bulk of what is needed for each topic but it is recommended that it is run in conjunction with a G.C.S.E textbook for more detailed notes and extra case study practice.
