5th year Business

Our 5th Year Business students have been engaging brilliantly with the new specification. Today they worked through a detailed STEEPLE analysis using a case study based on a company producing plant based drinks. Students examined how a wide range of external influences — Social, Technological, Economic, Environmental, Political, Legal and Ethical factors — can impact a company’s strategic planning. They discussed trends such as sustainability, changing consumer preferences and emerging technologies, and considered how these factors create both opportunities and challenges for businesses operating in a competitive market. The activity encouraged excellent critical thinking, collaboration and real-world application of theory. A fantastic effort from all students — well done!
