infoWhy this? Globalisation ensures students can understand how businesses operate in an increasingly connected world. This topic helps them explore how international trade, technology, and global markets create both opportunities and challenges for businesses. Understanding globalisation develops commercial awareness and helps students make sense of real-world business decisions that affect consumers, workers, and economies worldwide.

scheduleWhy now? Globalisation is taught at the start of Theme 4 because it provides the foundation for understanding how businesses operate in international markets. It introduces key ideas about global trade, competition, and growth that underpin many of the topics studied later in the theme. Starting with globalisation helps students build a broad understanding of the global business environment before exploring specific international business strategies.
