8:30am: Our entrepreneur guest Rebecca Gossage will join us and share her story and get advice and feedback from Simon and William and you!
Rebecca is a former Business Studies teacher taking a year out to travel. As Covid put a stop to that, she decided to use her time to create an online learning resource for students that she wish existed when she was teaching. The website will contain the theory for all units on the BTEC Business Studies course but she would love to bring it to life with the stories of entrepreneurs in the real world.
