Business Studies take every opportunity to exploit their industrial links, providing pupils with a richer experience from which to draw for their coursework. Fortunately, we are well positioned at Cumberland School and find ourselves within a short distance of a number of high profile organisations.
Today Ms Lewis took a group of Year 10 BTEC candidates to West Ham Utd, where pupils saw at first hand the multitude of ways that the football club generates income. A tour took in the home and away changing rooms, the director's stand, the director's box, a hotel room, the press room, a functions suite, the bar and reception, as well as the pitch edge. The hosts, Tom and Nadirah, were fabulous and regaled pupils with countless interesting facts - including, to Georgia's amazement, that the grass on the pitch can be heated up using underground heating!!
