A big thank you to Mr Mark Prendergast, ex pupil, parent and Managing Director of Harris Pye Engineering and Mr Andrew Banks, ONS Economist for Friday's indepth discussion.
The two guest speakers gave insightful talks into their respective positions and the impact economic changes have upon how they do their jobs. The astronomical figures they talked about in relation to contracts and international trade, gave stidents a real perspective on the economics they study at GCSE and A Level.
The students commented on how interesting it was to see and hear about exchange rates, inflation and economic growth happening in the real world in everyday business. Hopefully it inspired them to be the next Lord Sugar or George Osbourne!!!!
