This bundle of lessons can be spread over 2-3 lessons and learners are introduced to the two financial statements. We start by breaking down an example of a Pizza shop’s revenues, costs and profit to show how the income statement is built step by step, students consolidate with an activity of creating an income statement for Ian Beale’s fish and chip shop. Answers provided to self assess.
We then go on to the statement of financial position or balance sheet, before looking at some financial information and carrying out calculations (which students would’ve learned in year 12 theme 2 such as current ratio), answers provided to self assess, next, using these answers students complete a 12 mark written question - the type that appears in paper 3, so it’s a good idea to make sure students are familiar with this. Structure guidance and concise model answer provided to develop exam technique, a kahoot quiz and box plenary to finish with.

This double lesson introduces learners to public expenditure by the government. We start by looking at the three different types of expenditure (current, capital and transfer payments) before a quick activity where students estimate how much of the pot is distributed in different areas. We then look at various graphs and charts such as spending over time, spending as % of GDP, changes in spending on different areas, future spending forecasts, all this should help to contextualise the topic, we also compare spending as % of GDP internationally. We then go onto look at reasons for changes in public expenditure as well as the impacts on aspects such as productivity, equality, taxation and crowding out. Some true or false questions to consolidate, video case studies for further contextualisation.
In the second lesson, there a diamond 9 group activity so students can justify where money should be spent, this creates a great opportunity to turn this into an election sort of activity as we then split the class into two different parties, each preparing a manifesto on how they will spend the budget.
