As previously advised, from the April 2024 examinations onward, our previous policy of announcing the industry sector in advance will no longer apply. The case study will not be notified in advance. Students are expected to demonstrate strategic thinking and creativity through their ability to analyse business scenarios critically, carry out SWOT analyses and identify/justify innovative strategic options. In addition to understanding business in an Irish context, students should display a global outlook and an awareness of the importance of business ethics and social responsibility in organisations. The full syllabus and examination information for Strategy and Leadership can be found
