FEL’s popular Factory Uncovered seminars and tours are back for the new 24/25 academic year. Led by FEL Director Caroline Ash, these informative sessions are adapted to reinforce learning on a range of topics from fashion and manufacturing to business and ethics.
On 4th October a group of Sixth Form students visited from Bolton School, Caroline said:
“What a fabulous way to start the new academic year. We had a new client, Bolton School, come in for our first seminar. They were an extremely enthusiastic bunch of students asking questions all the way through. Although this was a business course they clearly all had a real interest in the fashion industry. They really enjoyed the experience.”
Feedback from the group was excellent and included:
“I learned a lot about the factory process, growing of the industry, AI and marketing. Really enjoyed, thank you.”
“I found out about the fashion industry and much more. Amazing experience! Thank you for your time.”
“Lovely speaker.”
“I have learnt about the impact of AI and its potential in the industry. Amazing speaker!”
“Really informative and interesting.”
“I found out about the growing of AI in fashion and all of the business problems that can occur.”
“I gained a lot of relevant info / practical application for A-level Business. Thank you!”
“This was a great whistle stop tour of A-level Business concepts applied well to the fashion industry.”
“I learned how complex and hugely interesting behind the scenes of fashion is. This has further inspired me in my fashion career.”
