About this course

In this course, we introduce the 'place' of supply side policies in the specification and course content along with the prerequisite knowledge needed to effectively analyse and evaluate the topic in a way that can maximise both understanding and marks in exam questions.

There is a strong focus on the skills needed for success, such as precise use of language, and synoptic connections to other parts of the course. During the course, we make suggestions for classroom activities and learning resources. This course pairs well with our other Year 12 CPD courses on macroeconomic policies (Teaching Monetary Policy for Year 12 and Teaching Fiscal Policy for Year 12) as well as our Year 13 course on Teaching Competition Policy.

Who it's for

Perfect for new economics teachers, those returning to the economics classroom, or teachers wanting to approach their teaching in a different way. The course is suitable for teachers of all awarding body specifications.
