Business Studies is a unique subject in the sense that events can occur on a daily basis or even overnight that can literally change business sectors forever! For example, the banking collapse in 2008 saw an unprecedented change in the UK Banking system, which then led to a collapse of classic British High Street institutions such as Woolworths. The current Eurozone crisis is completely unprecedented and we wait with baited breath as to the outcome! In summary, Business Studies is an exciting, relevant and total up to date subject that affects your daily life. Whatever you want to achieve career wise, you will work for a business; whether it is one that is profit making or non-profit making or perhaps even one you start yourself. Therefore it is really worth learning how businesses operate. There are many career paths with a Business qualification; from Marketing through to Accountancy and even Law! Apprenticeships are available with top UK firms (Ford, Citi Group etc.) which will enable you to gain practical training and further qualifications without university debt. There are literally thousands of Business related courses to choose from if you want to go to university so there are many options available to you. During Year 1 you will study a wider range of topics from what is a business, through to leadership and management, financial management and strategic decisions. The new A level specification is much more focused on management and leadership which is an ideal preparation for university as Business degrees also cover these topics.
