On Tuesday, April 14th, Bexhill 6th Form College hosted a bespoke Unit 2 Grade Boosting Workshop for over 60 Politics, Economics, Business, and Law students. The intensive session was designed to strengthen students’ understanding of the marketing mix ahead of their upcoming examinations.
The college welcomed Head of Marketing Emma Pearce from Lightning Fiber, who shared her career journey and provided professional context to the students’ studies. The day was focused on practical application, with students working in groups to master the “7P’s” of marketing and develop person specifications.
Following the presentation, students took part in an interactive “Pitching Session” where they worked in groups to develop person specifications and present them directly to Emma for professional feedback. The afternoon concluded with a creative workshop focusing on the “7P’s” of the marketing mix, where students designed their own products and applied marketing frameworks to real-world scenarios.
The event saw a fantastic turnout, with several students even choosing to attend on their scheduled day off. Participants described the session as “educating” and “very cool,” enjoying the rare opportunity to receive direct feedback on their ideas from a local industry professional.
