<h2 class="heading--box-blue">Shape your pupils' futures</h2>
<p>Teaching business opens the door for your pupils to pursue exciting careers. They could work in a diverse range of fields, from business analysis and data science to accountancy and financial management.</p>
<p>Your pupils will learn more from you than you might think. As their teacher, you'll guide them through the skills they need to show their understanding of business. You'll teach them valuable life skills such as critical thinking, decision making and communication.</p>

<h2 class="heading--box-blue">What you'll teach</h2>
<p>Business is only a subject option in schools at GCSE level and above. You may also teach another subject to younger students, such as computing.</p>
<p>When you teach 14 to 16 year olds (key stage 4), you'll teach the <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/gcse-business"> GCSE subject content for business</a>.</p>
<p>Skills and knowledge you'll teach include:</p>
<ul>
<li> how different business contexts affect business decisions</li>
<li> the use and limitation of quantitative and qualitative data in making decisions</li>
<li> the types of business ownership, including business start-ups and the concept of limited liability</li>
<li> how to investigate, analyse and evaluate business opportunities and issues</li>
</ul>
<p>At A level and AS level (key stage 5), you’ll teach pupils skills and knowledge including:</p>
<ul>
<li>making justifiable decisions using both qualitative methods and quantitative methods</li>
<li>identifying business opportunities and problems </li>
<li>being aware of the ethical dilemmas and responsibilities faced by organisations and individuals</li>
<li>developing a critical understanding of organisations and their ability to meet society’s needs and wants</li>
</ul>
