Tesco Property Day
The whole of Year 9 were lucky to have several representatives from Tesco visit us for the day to explore the ‘Property’ aspect of the company. Students participated in a variety of tasks led by the Tesco team, that opened their eyes to the thinking behind the location, size, concessions and layout of Tesco stores. This helped them in their ultimate task; to create and present their ‘Store of the Future’.
The students worked hard in their groups to create their stores and the presentations were fantastic, especially as the students were presenting to their whole year group! Students were able to justify why they had made certain decisions and the winning teams were awarded prizes at the end of the day. Not only was there lots of chocolate given out across the course of the day, but this activity was beneficial as it broadened the students’ understanding of the variety of jobs / careers within a large company such as Tesco. During the day, students also developed their employability skills and worked as a team throughout.
