Dear Parent/Carer

Re: Year 10 GCSE Business Studies & BTEC Retail Visit to Chessington

Your son/daughter is presently studying for the GCSE (Double Award) in Business Studies or the BTEC Retail course. To complete the course it is recommended by the examination board that students visit two different organisations to allow them to ‘compare and contrast’ each within the coursework component.

Students have already been to Asda in Brighton Marina for a presentation.  However, students also have to complete a second visit to another organisation and Chessington is an organisation identified by the examination board.  While at Chessington students will receive a presentation on Unit 1 ‘Investigating How Businesses Work’ and Unit 3 ‘People, Business & Change’.

The date of the trip is Tuesday 8 June 2010 and we are asking for a voluntary contribution of £15.00 to cover the cost of the trip.  Should insufficient contributions be forthcoming the trip may not take place.  

We intend to leave Longhill at approximately 8.30am.  Chessington are giving a presentation at 10.15pm and we will leave at approximately 15.00pm.  We should arrive back at Longhill at about 17.00pm depending on road conditions.

School uniform must be worn and it is recommended that students take a packed lunch with them.

Please return your reply slip to the Cashier’s Office.  Cheques should be made to Longhill School and have your sondaughter’s name, mentor group and Year 10 Chessington visit written on the back.

Yours sincerely

 

Mr M Hooley
Business Studies & Retail Teacher
