Useful material for Economics

So I will be starting sixth form after the summer, hopefully after getting the required GCSEs, and one of my options is Economics which I will probably do in uni. Therefore I am wondering if anyone could recommend some material to help me learn about the basics or something useful to the A level itself (I am on AQA btw if it helps). This could be books, videos, podcasts etc, as long as it will be useful to me. I know I will be learning about it over the 2 years, however this is a brand new subject and I would like to have some knowledge beforehand so I at least understand some things.

Thanks for reading this, and hopefully you can give me some guidance

For a good introduction to economics I like Tim Harford's books, The Undercover Economist (mostly micro stuff) and The Undercover Economist Strikes Back (mostly macro stuff). They're a great introduction to economics as a subject, although they might not always be too relevant to your course. The Worldly Philosophers by Robert Heilbroner is a good book about the history of economics - how different ideas developed, and the lives of some famous economists - although that's even less relevant to your course. You should also read the Economist or the FT and the economics section of a good newspaper (the Guardian and the Telegraph are both free online) for news that's relevant to economics.
