Posting your Peter Jones TIS Business Plan to the Peter Jones Foundation Tycoon in School Website

With regard to uploading your the business plan it is fairly straight forward, the business needs setting up on the platform and then this will open up another section of the site to you. In order to do this you will need to login and on the dashboard you will hopefully see the below. On the section titled “Businesses” there will be a button labeled “Add new Business”.

 

 

If you click this then you will be presented with a new screen where you complete information pertaining to the business. Some sections can be left blank but the Business Name and Competition Widow have to be completed (competition window is particularly important as this indicates the age group the students are in, Tycoon 750 for Key Stage 1 & 2, Tycoon 1K for Key Stage 3 & 4 and Tycoon 2K for Key Stage 5) the other sections can be completed at a later date. Once this is done the businesses that you load up will begin appearing on your dashboard in the section titled “Businesses”. If you then click on the relevant business name you will go inside the business dashboard and here is where you will find the business plan section. On the right hand side of the screen there will be a section titled “Business Planning” with two icons.

 

 

If you click the left hand icon you will be taken to the following screen.

 

 

Here you will indicate how you intend to complete the business plan. There are two options to complete the business plan either complete an online form or upload the business plan in the form of a word document. If you want to upload the document indicate this on the screen by clicking “Upload Document” and you will have a line of text you can click that will allow you to download the business plan template (if you need to), it will say in bold text “Click here to download the Business Plan as an editable Word Document”.

 

I hope this makes sense but if needs be just get back in touch through the comments box at the bottom of this site and I can try to support you remotely. Also just to make you aware it is possible for you to add businesses, as the students have profiles on the site, and then upload/complete the plans. These will always be pushed to Mr T for approval before coming to Peter Jones so if you do all this yourself I will see when you have

Hot News - Update
Peter Jones from the Dragons Den has now decided to get behind this and has sponsored the start up costs through his Tycoon in School Foundation initiative so £1000 landed yesterday in the account that the schools has set up for the learners to make this idea a reality.


Also Coles Estate Agents have agreed to sponsor this event by advertising it throughout the town and have asked if we could move it to the high street in East Grinstead next year as part of the towns 'big reveal' so next years Christmas Market could include all schools and local businesses making the best Christmas Market East Grinstead has ever seen and maybe even like the German Markets or the ones in Birmingham !


Also the local East Grinstead branch of Rotary Club are hoping to bring their Christmas tree

Good luck Sophie and lets raise some money this year for great causes both in and out of Imberhorne, this year and every year as well as the profile of your nominated charity Fibromayalgia UK
