GCSE Business

Mae disgrifiad y cymhwyster yn Saesneg yn unig, gan ei fod wedi ei gymryd o fanyleb Saesneg CBAC.

GCSE Business asks learners to research a real local business and an entrepreneurial idea, collect data with questionnaires, present it in graphs and charts, and work out costs, profit and a cash flow forecast, with both NEA reports submitted digitally. The examined units test understanding of business technology, digital marketing and intellectual property rather than software skills. The single biggest thing KS3 should build is confident spreadsheet use: turning survey results into charts and building simple financial models with formulae.
