LEVEL 2 Work Experience Week 1

The level 2 beauty program requires that all students should take part in 30 hours of work experience. This can either be undertaken in industry or college
I introduced work experience and explained that it's main focus would be on customer service, retail and sales.
Everyone set up their blogs and made their first posts. I explained that we use our blogs to reflect on our practices in order to improve our future practices.

I booked out our departments new laptop trolley for everyone to setup their blogs

Grace already had her own blog so she was able to support her peers with setting up their blogs

Imogen set-up her own blog with no problems then supported others with theirs

Ellie is a confident and mature member of the group. She offered support to others with regards to setting up g-mail accounts.

Once you have set your blog up Blogger is extremely easy to us. Initially making it an excellent tool for all students

Preparation for H32

Part of the level 3 program is a unit called H32. This unit is about working with others to plan, implement and evaluate promotional activities. The students are planning a pamper day to be held on the 27th November. They have devised different beauty package and retail sets.

Charity Waxing Event

During the half term break Ellie, Alana and I took part in a charity waxing event at BHP Accountants in Chesterfield. Between use we waxed six men's legs. This kind of speed waxing will help the girls to develop and refine their waxing skills.   

 Sam Bradwell who organised the event set up a "just giving" account which raised upwards of £600 pounds for the Macmillan Cancer Charity. This was a positive and enjoyable experience for all involved not only because it helps a good cause but it also strengthens our links with local businesses.
