This extensive unit is built around a realistic business scenario where the student takes on the role of training lead for an animal sitting service. The focus is on creating a clear, professional training package that teaches staff how to care for the animals the business accepts, while developing practical skills across animal science, communication and digital presentation.
Throughout the unit, students plan and produce a structured PowerPoint that balances visual design with clear spoken delivery. Writing tasks are embedded across the sequence, allowing students to practise informative, procedural and creative writing in a purposeful context rather than as isolated exercises. The emphasis is on producing work that is useful, professional and suitable for a real workplace setting.
Students learn how to present key information effectively, recognise basic animal care needs and warning signs, and communicate clearly with clients. The final outcome includes a polished presentation, a supporting script and a practical handout designed for staff use beyond the training session.
The completed portfolio demonstrates planning, communication, design and applied knowledge, resulting in a cohesive and presentation-ready training package that reflects real-world expectations.
