  •   We have decided to choose cross curricular as a focus as we identified that as a weakness in the SCOT

Related School-wide Initiatives
  •  We will work with other subject departments on this issue as it will benefit everyone. We will also highlight to students at every opportunity.

What does it mean for Business Studies?
  •  Topics that will benefit in Business studies & maths are calculating percentage and percentage increase and discount (insurance premiums, business documents, payslips & tax, final accounts)
  • Business & home economics - budgeting, MABs and financial services, gross and net wage, consumer legislation 
  • Business & geography are sustainability, globalisation, economic activities, economic impacts, resources (natural resources etc)

Classroom Strategies in Action
  • Brainstorming for prior knowledge & where the likely overlaps will be
  • Mindmapping
  • Peer teaching - eg get a home ec student to explain what they learn in that subject
  • Shared document eg google docs
  • 1 page summary
  • Use a calculator emulator at the start of any numeracy work
  • Team teaching with math teachers for the maths-heavy content

Further Supports/Resources
  •  Themathsteacher.ie videos on relevant maths skills

Periodic Review
  • To be reviewed periodically
