It has been a particularly tough year for the high-street; with well-known retail brands such as Maplin and Toys’R’Us closing down, and House of Fraser and Mothercare, Debenhams reducing the number of stores. In spite of this, holidays remain a spending priority, although a continued weak Pound means the desire to get a value-for-money break has strengthened and is reflected in people’s choices. • While consumers remained unshaken in the first few months of 2019, the index was down by four points year-on-year, according to the GfK Consumer Confidence Index. • Consumer confidence rose a single point from -14 in February, the first time the index had risen since August last year, when it rose by three points to -7.

  • Tourism (WJEC Applied Diploma)
    Tourism (WJEC Applied Diploma) Why Study Tourism? This is a Level 3 qualification (on a par with A-Levels) and accepted equally by universities and employers. If you are good at coursework (and not so good at exams) this is the course for you—50% of it is coursework assessed. At the end of Year 12 you will have a Level 3 Certificate and, at the end of Year 13, you will have a Level 3 Diploma in Tourism. This qualification is both academic and practical and so prepares students for further education and employment. The applied approach to teaching will give students real-world skills and knowledge valued by employers. Students who are good at coursework can really boost their grades with 50% of both the Certificate and the Diploma being coursework assessed. This course fits well with Double Applied Business and Double Health and Social Care, but also with Geography, Sociology, Psychology and other more ‘traditional’ A-Level subjects. Year 12 Content In Year 12 you will study one long-haul and one short-haul destination investigating opportunities for further development, threats, challenges and sustainability (coursework assessed) You will then analyse the tourism industry in the UK– its appeal, how it is marketed, how destinations are managed, customer demographics, employment and planning (all exam assessed). Year 13 Content In Year 13 the group will make all the travel arrangements for a tour; in doing this students will learn about budgets and finances, promotion and marketing, legal requirements and logistics—they also go somewhere really interesting! (coursework assessed). For their final exam (25% of their overall mark) students will learn about external and environmental pressures on tourism, the management of iconic attractions and access to sensitive destinations in addition to crisis management (exam assessed).

    Written evidence submitted by VisitBritain (IRW 13) About VisitBritain VisitBritain is the United Kingdom’s strategic body for inbound tourism. A non-departmental public body, funded by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport, it is responsible for promoting Britain worldwide and developing its visitor economy. VisitBritain plays a unique role promoting Britain around the world, supporting tourism growth and thereby economic growth. VisitBritain has been directed by Government to run a £100 million marketing programme, to inspire travellers to visit and explore Britain, across a four year period (2011/12-2014/15). This programme includes £50 million of partner funding (cash and in-kind). VisitBritain has a strong record of partnership working and locking in private sector funds to sell the destination. VisitBritain is also a key partner of the GREAT Britain campaign, which brings together the Foreign & Commonwealth Office, UK Trade & Investment and the British Council to promote the UK as a GREAT place to visit, invest, trade and study. Together these campaigns aim to attract 4.6 million additional visitors, spending £2.6 billion across the UK, sustaining jobs and supporting economic growth, across a four-year period. In 2013, VisitBritain announced an ambition to attract 40 million visitors a year by 2020 (an increase of 8 million on 2012). This would deliver £31.7 billion annual spend by overseas visitors (in real terms) and support an additional 200,000 additional jobs across the UK. VisitBritain has developed a clear strategy to work with partners to deliver on this ambition which was launched by the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport in April 2013.
