On 29th September 2023, Bushey Meads School had the first Enrichment Day for this academy year. The computing department took the opportunity to do the Dragon’s Den project with the Year 10 students.
The Year 10 students worked in groups with no more than two students in a group. They were to come up with their own company name, a relevant company logo, a product to sell, a profit and loss financial spreadsheet and a presentation to present to the imaginary dragons at the end of the day.
One group decided to open a gym called “Pump house”, another group decided to sell luxury cars, another group wanted to sell futuristic motorbikes and the girls’ group would like to sell beautiful plastic flowers and house-plants.

Year 8 approached the “Mission to Mars” challenge with energy and enthusiasm to solve the many challenges this task generated. The students were required to work as a...
