GCSE Business Studies Year 9 Options

Where will Business success take me?
This GCSE Level will get you started in business….And give you the skills and knowledge to progress to higher
education. You could work for a corporation, or maybe a management consultant. All businesses (and other
organisations like charities and hospitals) need sound business skills behind them.
Students who take Business Studies often also study Accounting, History, Computing, Geography, Modern
Languages, DT or Maths. But students committed to the arts or sciences should also consider taking Business Studies
in this cost-centred world.
