Why We Study Business

We study Business due to its highly applicable nature to the world we live in, covering dynamic concepts such as the importance of ethics and technology in a world that demands businesses to think sustainably.

Business is a subject that develops evaluative and critical thinkers who make well-rounded decisions based on the context provided. A valuable skill for any student's arsenal.

We provide a foundation for understanding business actions in the real world, the ability to apply mathematical concepts to support young entrepreneurs and promote creative thinking to unleash students' curiosity in the subject. 

What studying Business is like at HASN

Business lessons apply each concept to a case study, giving students exposure to different products, jobs and industries to broaden their understanding of the working world. Most lessons include opportunities to read text and write a supported judgement about business decisions - thinking like a business owner. We strongly support students' literacy skills, ensuring they can write a critical evaluative decision about what a business should do and why, based on an exam-style question in each lesson.

Students have opportunities to work on their enterprising ideas in end-of-term projects to boost presentation and oracy skills within business, needed for the working world.
