New Business Travel Blog
I have done a fair bit of globetrotting over the last 7 years and I have made full use of the time to visit some interesting locations for Business Education.
I have decided to post pictures, text and business information about my travels on a new blog:

Mock Interviews
Senior pupils underwent mock interviews today as part of enrichment and NPA Enterprise & Employability.
Our interviewers were employers from a range of industries and put our young people through their paces.
Feedback was highly positive, and the vast majority of pupils enjoyed the process. As Helen Salt said: "it's better to make mistakes in a mock interview than in a real one".
Our next step is to aim high and try conduct a whole year group mock interview event.
The more experience our pupils can get the better!
