Cosy Direct

Had an absolutely fabulous day yesterday with my Birchwood pupils visiting Cosy in Burton-on-Trent. At Birchwood we place great emphasis on giving pupils experience and understanding of ‘The World of Work’ and we were extremely grateful to Chris Ratcliffe for inviting us to visit Cosy. The pupils benefited so much from the day in being able to chat to, and see in action a wide range of people in different roles at Cosy. I must give a special mention to four of the apprentices at Cosy who delivered a wondeful session with the pupils and shared first hand their educational and professional journeys which led to the point which they are at now. Throughout the day the pupils were really impressed with Cody’s ethical approach to both their products and how they run their business and certainly loved the philosophy of taking more of their lesrning outdoors. A massive thank you to everyone at Cosy for making us so welcome throughout the day and to Carol Allen for accompanying the Birchwood pupils on the trip too.
