Business-Leaving Cert Information

Scheme of Work for the Leaving Cert Business Grinds Sessions  [for 5th & 6th year students]

**The course focuses on continuous practice of likely Leaving Certificate Higher level Business exam topics, with particular emphasis on the marking scheme and how students can maximise their grades in the exam. Time is spent studying the Theory section of the course, which is essential if students hope to achieve a H1 grade in the exam. Comprehensive notes with fully worked solutions will also be provided.

Please note the following important points:

**Please note: All students must bring their own natural display calculator + 1A4 manuscript notes copy**

EXTRA NOTES will be published each week on Edmodo for students to be able to study supplement course material at their own leisure outside of our tuition sessions. We would ask all members to use these digital classrooms platforms on a weekly basis to maximise their overall grade.
