Junior Cycle Business Studies is a practical, engaging subject that helps students understand how the world of money, work, and enterprise really work. In 2nd and 3rd year, students explore topics such as how businesses operate, entrepreneurship, marketing and the wider economy. It develops real-life skills like decision-making, problem-solving, teamwork, and financial literacy — useful whether students plan to run a business, work in one, or simply manage their own money wisely.

 

Why choose it?

✔ Learn how money and businesses work in real life

✔ Build confidence with financial decisions

✔ Develop communication and analytical skills

✔ Great foundation for future business subjects — or everyday life.

 

This subject branches into three Leaving Cert options- Business, Economics and Accounting and here in St Louis, we offer all three to students.
