Each Strong Foundations workshop runs from 10.30am until 3.10pm with four sessions delivered in the cinema screen by our specialist presenters. Students have a short break during the morning and 50-60 mins to relax over lunch before returning for a fast-paced, intensive afternoon session!

What we'll cover
- In this session we will review some of the key content from Year 12 micro and macro that is essential for nailing more advanced Year 13 content such as elasticity, government intervention, and macro objectives.
- In this session we will review some of the key micro policies covered in Year 12 (eg indirect tax, subsidy, price controls (max and min price), regulation) and look at their use in different industry contexts for year 13 micro; this session will help to develop the key micro application skills for exam success
- In Session 3 we will focus on the main macro policies you covered in Year 12 eg fiscal, monetary, and supply side policies, and look at their use in different country contexts. As with Session 2, this session will help to build application skills for success in macro exam questions.
- This fun, varied and fast-paced afternoon session includes lots of little activities aimed to help prevent loss of important marks. We’ll review some key calculation skills, look at how to use diagrams really effectively, consider some commonly confused terms and finish with a look at command words.
