Why study Economics?
​
Economics is a challenging and rewarding senior high school subject that will hone your skills in analysis, decision-making, and justifying your arguments.
Economics occurs in real-time, and helps us to understand the intended and unintended consequences of decisions made by ourselves, and the people, firms and governments around us. ​
Early economists were essentially the moral philosophers of their time, and I hope that through your study of economics you begin to question the world around you, and think of how you can contribute to a better future. ​​​​​​​
"I'll probably never study economics again, but at least I now understand what's happening on the news." (Will - past student, 2022)
