AN IDEA IN A DAY

On the 7th and 11th November, SMS had the opportunity to take 50 students to Surrey University to experience ‘An IDEA (Innovation and Digital Enterprise Academy) in a Day’ programme.

Throughout the day, students developed their knowledge and understanding of commercialisation in the business world and looked at ideas of how to advertise and present information on products.  After this, they used the skills they had learnt to introduce how they had innovated a basic item such as a toothbrush or trainer, and presented their ideas back to the rest of the group and a panel of judges.  The students commented on how informative the day was and particularly loved the generous lunch that was provided, of Domino’s pizza!

Once again, we would like to thank Surrey University for providing such a great day.
