Job overview

The Economics & Business Department is one of the largest Departments in St Charles Catholic Sixth Form with over 400 students and 9 members of staff who all teach on a variety of courses.  All teachers within the department have degrees or postgraduate qualifications in Economics or Business.  Many have industrial experience, which ranges from Retail Management to running their own business. The Department is a high performing subject area with positive outcomes for students at all levels.

The A Level & BTEC courses on offer are very popular and in response to the A level reforms the department has decided to follow the Edexcel specification for all Business & Economic courses, which allows the students to apply business and economic theory in both microeconomics and macroeconomics, to real world areas such as; the Sugar Tax, the National Living Wage, Impact of Wages on Employee Productivity and staff motivation, Brexit and the implications of Covid 19 on global commerce and markets.

We try to match teaching timetables to the successful applicant’s particular areas of expertise and experience.  Given the range of curriculum offer within the department, however, flexibility and commitment to comprehensive provision is important.
