Economics is a fascinating and academically-rigorous subject. It offers a new perspective on the modern world and is a subject which influences our everyday decisions. From where to live, to what to buy, to which job to accept, Economics underpins these choices. Students debate big economic questions, including: What is free trade? Does international aid work? Is this China’s century?, and produce persuasive essays about real-world issues. Over the last few years, students have analysed the causes of the global financial crisis, the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, and the consequences of Brexit. They develop strong essay writing skills and use data, graphs and case studies to inform their arguments.
The first-class Economics team includes Heads of Departments and Subject Leads at top independent schools. Many are also GCSE and A Level examiners. Lessons teach students how human behaviour results from using scarce resources to satisfy unlimited demand. Teachers give students the confidence and ability to make meaningful contributions to class discussions. They learn about financial markets, business economics and macroeconomic trends, and express their ideas through compelling written arguments.
