Business Studies Trips

People, finance and marketing in action

Business Studies as a subject is designed to show students how companies are set up and operated, and includes discussion of topics such as Business Types, Human Resources functions, Marketing applications, sources of finance, and opportunities for growth. Despite not being one of the National Curriculum programmes of study, most schools recognise the value in giving students the opportunity to take Business Studies, and exams can be taken at both Key Stage 4 and Key Stage 5.

When Business Studies is limited to the classroom it can be difficult for the teacher to engage and inspire their class. If there is one school subject that really does benefit enormously from a tour where students can see what they are learning in a real world context, Business Studies and Economics is it!

Our featured business studies tours give your students the exciting opportunity to visit world financial centres such as New York, London and Madrid. We can also tailor make trips to important industrial centres in Germany or China, and even mix economics and politics with fascinating tours of the European Union headquarters or the United Nations buildings. Just let us know what you would like to include in your trip.
