AS - A2 Economics
Board and Syllabus: AQA
Objectives and Nature of the Course
Throughout the course we aim to develop students’ awareness of the national and international economic environment and, through discussion, encourage an understanding of the important link between macroeconomic variables. In the micro-economic topics we would expect students to develop an analytical approach to essay writing and through practice learn how to tackle MCQ papers effectively. It is often helpful in this respect for students to have a respectable Maths background.
Course Content
Economics will be taught by two teachers (four periods per week each). The three AS modules will be taken at the end of the Lower 6th and module 4 in the January of the Upper 6th. Modules 5 and 6 (along with any resits) will be taken at the end of the course
