BS03 Raising Achievement in Business Studies

25% of pupils achieved a grade A at A level in 2007. Which means that 75% didn't! This course is aimed at teachers of the 75%.
The 2008 dates and venues have yet to be finalised for this course. Please return to our Course Subjects page.

Objectives

To provide delegates with tools and techniques for immediate use in the classroom - to raise achievement, whatever the level, whatever the board - for Business Studies.

Who should attend

All teachers of Business Studies - whatever the level. The course follows the skeleton outline below but, importantly, the content is built round the delegates attending. Uniquely, delegates are contacted before the course and complete a questionnaire. The course is then written round the responses - thus ensuring that all participants receive a course designed especially for them. Each course, each venue is unique - we are not a 'Rent-a-Trainer' type of company!
