In BTEC Business this morning we have been practising how to answer 6 mark questions to get the most marks for our work.

A good technique is to draw a table as below, and write two points for each factor we are comparing. This enables us to come to a reasoned conclusion. 😍

In BTEC Business Studies this week we have been learning about the importance of accurate financial records in a small business.😍

Accuracy minimises profit loss, maintains reputation of your business and ensures accurate VAT tax returns at the end of the financial year.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: 
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
