Cambridge IGCSE Business Studies
The benefits of studying Cambridge IGCSE Business Studies
Our Cambridge IGCSE Business Studies homeschooling course will help your child to understand how a business works.
Think about that new coat you bought last week, for example. Then think of all the businesses that made it possible for you to be wearing it right now. The obvious ones are the shop and the manufacturing plant – but what about the cotton growers, the label makers and the delivery company? What about the firms that audit the accounts of a business?
Thinking about these processes and people will enable your child to understand about what business is all about.

Business Studies is great – it helps you to understand why and how business decisions are made. Students I have taught have loved it because they can apply it to real life – I hope you will too!

My son James Fox was homeschooled and we chose Wolsey Hall to support him. The learning material was clear and concise and he was buoyed by the knowledge that support was only an email away. They say that the proof of the pudding is in the eating. Well, James did a clean sweep of A* and A’s. Job done. Thanks Wolsey Hall.
