On Wednesday, students visited the Bank of England Museum.

Across Year 10 Business, our students are studying the role of finance, the impact of technology increasing on businesses and the economy, and how this is having an impact on the consumers who are making the choice to purchase goods and services.

In Business, the economy and money rules all. Money and the way we use it has changed in recent decades. With digital and contactless payments on the rise, the choices we make, as individuals and businesses are having an impact. Futureproofing the economy to meet our needs, now and in the future, is the job of the Bank of England.

Students were able to explore the changes in history, how it has impacted the bank, what the bank does and what banks can do to ensure they can keep to their inflation target rate of 2%.

They were all so incredibly brilliant, presented KWS in a positive light, and portrayed interest in the role of the bank.

I am so unbelievebly proud of the effort they have put into their course so far.

A special thank you to our unbelievable staff that assisted in the trip too!
