About the course
What has caused the cost-of-living crisis the UK currently faces? What will the true impact of this crisis be? A Level Economics provides a strong grounding in both micro- and macro- economics for students to explain and evaluate economic problems and possible solutions. Confront recent and topical issues to appreciate the contribution economics makes to the wider environment. You will develop a range of skills as you analyse, debate, question, judge and make decisions on economic theories and policies.
