Perhaps you could offer a Citizenship Day which looks at the part of the
orders which refer to Bus/ Econ. A fun activity would provide you with a
platform. Your school will probably think you're great for helping too!
Is it in an option block with subjects that students are unwilling to give
up? Ask to be moved to another block?
