The Economist

In an increasingly interconnected world, the ability to analyse global events, interpret economic trends, and engage with informed perspectives is more important than ever. 

The Economist’s independent, global reporting enhances curricula and sharpens critical thinking across multiple subjects and in supporting in-depth essays such as the EPQ and IBDP EE.

The Economist provides students with access to in-depth independent analysis on the most important issues offering them a sophisticated and thought-provoking resource that will enhance their understanding of the world.

Combining rigorous analysis, fact-checked coverage and insightful commentary, The Economist:

  • gives students sound reasoning on global news events, business and finance, science and technology, political shifts and environmental challenges
  • provides infographics, data visualisations, case studies, special reports, and podcasts to help students evaluate sources and interpret statistics and trends.

We subscribe to The Economist because it’s a great resource, not just for Economics but also for Business and Geography. It is predominantly used amongst the Sixth Form, but our staff read it as well. Some of our Lower School scholars also like to use it for their research.
