Economics Staff:
| Mr Wallace |
Mr Wallace is head of the economics department and also academic tutor to the sixth form. He can be found in his teaching and tutor room GB7. Mr Wallace’s interests are wide ranging within the field of economics, however you will find him particularly animated when speaking within the area of environmental economics. Along with Dr Stimson he also has growing interest in the area of classroom simulations of economic problems – know as “experinomics”. |
| Dr Stimson |
Dr Stimson teaches economics at CRGS and has a school wide responsibility for gifted and talented provision. She has also introduced business studies as an additional A level for year 13 economists. Her normal teaching room is GB6. Having originally studied economics and economic history at university, she then went on to undertake postgraduate studies in the area of transport economics. She has a growing reputation for her addiction to competitions, from tax competitions to collecting Tesco vouchers! |
Economics Resources
Economics is a fascinating subject in part because it is ever changing. However this presents a problem when providing resources for economics students. Text books are invariably out of date in some way by the time they are published! We therefore ensure that you are provided with up to date printed and electronic resources.
You will be provided with this file and a CD Rom that provides an electronic textbook, examples of past exam papers, mark schemes, and much more. Should you lose this CD, you will also find the content available on shared resources. Many useful resources can also be found at the following web sites:
