Our Year 10 BTEC Enterprise pupils recently had the incredible opportunity to engage with local businesses during a series of interviews. We were privileged to host Tiegan Norris from Home Instead Cannock, Jonathan Pritchard, Managing Director of the Anglesey Group, and Stacey Craddock from Saxon Chase.
Pupils spent the hour interviewing our guests in preparation for their first BTEC Assignment, equating to 30% of their GCSE. The business representatives were extremely impressed with our pupilsβ abilities to pose questions and probe around a variety of different subjects in order to further their understanding.
Mr. S Royston, Curriculum Lead for BTEC Business and Enterprise, expressed his gratitude: “It was a privilege to welcome such fantastic guests to Chase Terrace Academy. They provided our Year 10 pupils with invaluable insights into their enterprises, making an enormous contribution to their studies. Our pupils, as always, conducted themselves impeccably and represented our academy community with distinction. Sitting coursework can still be nerve-wracking for some pupils, but I am extremely confident that, armed with the research they have conducted this afternoon, twinned with their tenacity and aspiration to be the best they can be, we will see great success from this assessment.β
