Applicants for GITEP’s Business Studies and Business with Economics ITT courses will normally have a 2:2 degree or above in a related subject in order to be accepted but relevant experience will be taken into consideration.
Good numeracy skills and a strong Business A-level or similar are an advantage. Candidates must have a good understanding of business principles and practice as well as micro and macro-economics.
Business Studies and Economics are popular subjects for students at both GCSE and A-level with a wide range of study options available, therefore a passion to inspire and motivate a future workforce is essential.
Every Thursday afternoon you will come together with your fellow Business Studies with Economics trainees and your Subject Lead. This unique element of our course provides the opportunity for you to learn more about your subject and the pedagogy surrounding it as well as share good practice with your colleagues. Subject Pathway sessions are incredibly varied and include workshops, seminars, guest speakers and trips.
The intent of the Business with Economics Subject Pathway course is to support and guide you to become a Business Studies or Business with Economics teacher who can:
- Inspire pupils to engage deeply with the leading research in Business/Economics
- Encourage pupils to view the subject challenging, dynamic and relevant to today’s world
- Equip pupils with the powerful knowledge and cultural capital that prepares them for lifelong learning and provides access to a variety of opportunities
The intent of the Business with Economics Subject Pathway programme is underpinned by, and infused throughout with, the five key themes of the GITEP Initial Teacher Education Partnership; partnership and community, subject knowledge and expertise, evidence informed and reflective practice, pupil progress and outcomes and well-being and support.
Business with Economics Subject Pathway sessions take place at a Partnership school in the county.
