About these new resources from Revisionstation
- Brand new teaching resources for the brand new specification
- These resources are for the AQA AS and A level Business
- AS (7137) and A level (7138) Specification
- For teaching from September 2026 onwards
- For AS exams in 2027 onwards
- For A-level exams in 2028 onwards
- Version 1.0 October 2025
Why do these resources have letters and numbers?
AQA does not have a system in the specification - so we have assigned letters to each of the subtopics to break them into individual topics. Otherwise the PowerPoints would be 100s of slides long. These are available to buy as individual lessons while writing is happening. As soon as a bundle is complete we will put it for sale.
PLEASE NOTE: These resources are PPT only (no worksheets) so students can make their own notes. Print out the slides 3 per page to give students a copy to annotate.
We hope to have everything ready by September 2026 for first teaching.
