GCSE Business
Mae disgrifiadau'r TGAU yn Saesneg yn unig, gan eu bod wedi eu cymryd o fanyleb Saesneg CBAC.
GCSE Business asks learners to calculate and interpret costs, revenue, profit, break-even, cashflow forecasts and profit margins, and to collect, present and judge market research data in two NEA reports worth 40% together. Literacy centres on reading business sources, using business terms precisely and writing reasoned judgements in extended answers and reports. The single biggest thing Key Stage 3 should build is confidence with money calculations in a business setting, followed by a written sentence saying what the answer means for the business.

Da gwybod
- No marks for spelling, punctuation and grammar or accuracy of language are stated anywhere in the specification; the assessment objectives (page 39) cover knowledge, application, analysis and evaluation, and enquiry skills only.
- Calculator use is not stated in the specification, although both examinations test calculations such as 'calculate and interpret a cashflow forecast' (page 30); 'The Assessment Pack will include all detailed information relating to assessment' (page 39).
- Both examinations are 1 hour 15 minutes and contain 'Questions requiring objective responses, short and extended answers, with some based around applied situations' (page 5).
- Unit 2 and Unit 4 NEA reports 'must be submitted digitally (they may be hand written and scanned, or completed digitally)' (pages 40 and 41), so handwritten work is accepted.
- Unit 2 takes '5 hours' and Unit 4 'will take 8 hours to complete' and 'could be completed in one sitting, or in multiple, shorter sessions' (page 40). No word limits are given.
