12 - Business centre’s special launch

 

The centre is thought to be the first of its kind in the country and will be used by the school’s 120 students.

 

The school will broadcast the official opening of the £200,000 centre live on the internet from 10.35am at www.sutton.dudley.gov.uk. Guests will include Simon Robins, executive director at Thomas Cook UK and Ireland who will cut the ribbon and declare the centre officially open.

 

Students will manage all aspects of the business centre from staffing the reception, dealing with administration and assisting with catering for conferences and events.

 

“The business centre provides a fantastic opportunity for our students to learn about the world of work and to develop skills which will benefit them greatly when starting their careers.”
