Business
The Oasis Academy Brislington, GCSE Business curriculum has a core aim of developing enterprising minds, and instilling a passion for Business. We want our students to feel empowered to start their own business, from developing a technological solution, to opening a new takeaway, to being a personal trainer! In addition, we want our students to have the skills and confidence to seek progression within existing Businesses, in career paths such as recruitment and marketing.
In addition to developing the character of our students, we want our students to have the competence to succeed in Business. Students will gain a strong understanding of business concepts, business terminology, business objectives and the integrated nature of business activity. Crucially, students will become confident in applying their understanding to unfamiliar contexts on a local, national and global scale. Students will gain opportunities to construct well-argued, well-evidenced, balanced and structured arguments, demonstrating their depth and breadth of understanding of business. Theme 1 concentrates on the key business concepts, issues and skills involved in starting and running a small business. It provides a framework for students to explore core concepts through the lens of an entrepreneur setting up a business. Theme 2 examines how a business develops beyond the start-up phase. Not only, do we want out students to have the character and competence necessary to succeed in Business, but we also want our students to become ethical business people with a strong understanding of how decisions made in Business can impact the local, national and global community.
