King Edward's School Home

An independent day school for boys aged 11 to 18

Economics & business studies

These subjects are offered to AS and A Level in the Sixth Form. In addition, the department contributes sessions on Economic Understanding in the Friday afternoon programme for Years 7, 8 and 9. The department is well stocked with books, videos and other resources; good use is made of computers to run economic and business simulations and to research and manipulate data. There is an Economics and Business Society organised by the boys. Pupils are also encouraged to enter locally and nationally run business games and competitions and to attend the 'Your Future in Europe' conference in Paris.
