A Level Business Simulation Skill:

Install this skill and you can ask Claude to build you a fully interactive exam-simulation game for any A-level Business topic — seeded with realistic business scenarios, scored like a game, and built as a single shareable file you can send to a class or drop straight into a VLE.
Each simulation is marked against the exam board’s four Assessment Objectives (AOs): AO1 (knowledge and understanding), AO2 (applying that knowledge to a business context), AO3 (analysis — explaining the “why” behind a business decision), and AO4 (evaluation — weighing up options and reaching a justified judgement). These are the same objectives examiners mark against, so practising them is practising exactly what earns marks.
Topics and terminology are mapped to the Eduqas A-level Business specification by default, but the skill can just as easily be pointed at AQA, Edexcel, or OCR — just specify the exam board and it will adjust the content and language to match.
The simulation includes:
A named fictional company and industry, freshly invented for the topic, so scenarios feel concrete rather than generic
Three exam-style scenarios per topic, each testing AO1, AO3, and AO4 in turn
Distractor answers written to mirror real student misconceptions rather than being obviously wrong, so getting a question right takes genuine reasoning, not just spotting the odd one out
A logic-chain builder, where students drag cause, effect, and impact statements into the correct order to reconstruct a chain of reasoning
An “exam examiner” mode, where students read a model paragraph and identify which sentence is doing the AO1, AO2, AO3, or AO4 job
A final judgement challenge, where students choose the right strategy for a given business situation and see the reasoning behind the correct answer
Lives, a live progress bar, and a scored results screen that flags weak areas for revision
A fresh colour scheme and company each time, so no two topics look the same
