With a topic-on-a-page, these knowledge organisers record the most essential microeconomics topics covered in the first year of Economics A-Level.  This download includes a booklet with 6 knowledge organisers and second booklet where there are gaps in each knowledge organiser for students to fill in to test their memory. Also included are individual files for each topic.
