The Business and Economics Department at St Peter’s High School consists of a team of two teachers. We are a collaborative and supportive team. We value the input of all team members, no matter how many years of experience. To enhance existing strengths, we encourage professional development, through courses, teaching a different subject and we lead the Gloucestershire Business Studies teacher network.
Our vision is to inspire, challenge and engage our students in achieving aspirational outcomes where students exceed their potential.
The Business & Economics Department endeavours to be an Outstanding area of the school and prides its self on equipping students with fantastic subject knowledge and transferable skills for future careers

At KS4, students are offered EDUGAS GCSE Business Studies and L2 OCR CAM NAT Enterprise and Marketing; at KS5, can select Economics A-Level or a L3 CAM TECH in Business Studies.
