Learning students to create a sales pitch to potential investors

Students

We shape a generation that will change our world for the better. This time, the English Department has organised an exciting Dragons' Den event for Year 9 students.

All Year 9 students spent the day collaboratively creating a sales pitch which they then delivered to a group of external business experts. This event enabled students to develop their skills in teamwork, creativity and provided them with the opportunity to communicate their ideas in a professional environment.

Therefore, we required Year 9 students to come to school dressed in smart, business attire. They aimed to present themselves in a way that potential 'investors' view them as credible, mature and trustworthy young people.

Students also had the option to bring in their own art resources that could be used to create a handwritten resource/drawing for their sales pitch.
