The kid that switched bags with him is a legend
I'll just eat his sweets and give it back😂😂
Even though he got caught that was nice of the kid switching bags
Yeah it was too kind
That's what you call freinds
It failed tho lol
I'm sorry, but how on earth is selling sweets 'dodgy'
Because it is. It’s like drug dealing if you think about it 😆 😂
@@KayKapone1 it’s really not, why would you even compare
@@KayKapone1 its really not. How can you compare selling SWEETS i repeat SWEET with drugs? There in school, how can they even have drugs their teacher will find out.
@@amara4259 it’s cause it’s taking potential money away from the school cause instead of these kids buying things from the school they buy from other students
It’s because the school cafeteria owns a monopoly with the school on consumable products being sold so in principle what the students are doing is actually illegal as they don’t have a license to sell those consumables on the school premises so it’s essentially a black market
Teachers threatening to tell their parents like someone’s parents is gonna care they’re selling sweets at school, if anything most parents would be proud their child is trying to make money

Schools shouldn’t be punishing kids for being entrepreneurs. This exposes schools as they only want workers not thinkers.
Well said David
Is there tax ramifications?
This is actually a really well spoken comment
@@genewaylife7188 they ain’t making 12k+ from sweets
I mean to be fair, if kids are all selling sweets then if kids sell drugs it might be harder to tell what's sweets and what's drugs but if they see it's sweets then I def think they should give it back.
This is probably something teachers should be more impressed with, I mean these guys are literally young businessmen.
We don’t care you’re selling sweets.
*but we do care that you know the mitochondria is the power house of the cell*
Exactly but the education system is so corrupt they only train students to be employees

I rate him for doing it but it was hardly smooth when he had to say ‘pass me your bag’ like 4 times 😂
I don't understand why teachers don't like this. The kids are literally entrepreneurs in the making.
ua-cam.com/video/m1bL5V6_YqY/v-deo.html
And I have seen schools that encourage this as it's seen as a skill. It can also be a part of a business workshop that some schools provide too. Literally, no problem.
I know my father's school did when he was younger. The schools had tuck shops, so why not let students do provide the same service and earn some money? They would make their own little signs and that.
I think it's because they don't want the students to accidentally make others ill by selling off date or bad sweets to other students.
I'm gonna sell books in school.

My middle school the students would cookies and brownies and cakes and would put drugs in them and sell them

🤣🤣
I have nothing but admiration for Nelson. I remember being in the same situation as him when nobody would buy from me until the top seller left.
My business teacher says that he doesn’t condone it but if he sees someone doing it then he will look the other way.

These kids are actually doing something that will benefit them when they go out to real world. What they are doing is 110 percent better than what they are teaching in classes and teachers should encourage them.

It's capitalism which is bad
can cause problems
No licence, private grounds generaly require a license to sell by law.

To be fair, although it may not be the healthiest option selling sweets, I quite like the initiative these kids have. Seeing a gap in the market and developing a strategy to fill it, only for the teachers to come along and pull it down. If I ran a school, I'd offer an environment to help teach and nurture the kids minds who are selling these sweets. Offer somewhere safe like a classroom to sell them in and teach them about all aspects of business. You could even set up multiple classrooms or desks to teach the kids about business competition and try to encourage them to sell healthier alternatives too, such as fruit. Call it an extra curricular activity and tie learning into something that the kids are clearly enjoying. Just goes to show that kids can clearly think in a way that stumps teachers, and it's quite sad to see such initiative and out of the box thinking be shot down by some 40 year old woman.
Additionally, at 4:47 when the teacher says 'if we catch you doing dodgy stuff again' she kind of makes it sound like he's dealing class A drugs to the kids, not sweets and pop. She clearly knew he wasn't dealing drugs however she made it out as if he was. How sad to see such a narrow mindset that's focused on hindering the potential of students, rather than encouraging and nurturing it. Just goes to show that schools were never designed as a learning environment, they were designed as an environment to produce workers who tow the line and don't deviate from instructions. Straight from the classroom to the factory floor.

In my school during gcse time I remember this type of business was booming. One time a member of the pastoral team was patrolling the corridors and caught a seller giving a student some Buenos and called for back up on the radio saying "We have just had a hand to hand transaction in the humanities corridor" and they fully described the student and then ended it with "the suspect was last seen leaving humanities corridor and is loitering on the bridge to maths".

What is the problem with selling sweets.
Idk it’s just not allowed lol
@@raphaelsanchez4153 k
sweets are banned in this school therefore they are going to take action against people who are not only breaking the rules but also profiting off breaking the rules.
Selling sweets is banned because the school can't ensure the kids haven't tampered with the products, or that anyone has any sort of allergies to these products. I personally think the restrictions are a bit over the top, and that they should put trust into the kids to manage them themselves. Developing a business interest is much more important than teaching kids compliance in my opinion, knowing the fundamentals of business will get you a lot further in life.
Innit

They should be allowed to do this, they are learning how to advertise their “business”! They are already going up to people and shouting the prices, and telling people to by from them. It’s perfect for when they get older

It's illegal to sell multipacks tho
@@DannyOF oh no the Cadbury's police is going to come after them because they dared to sell a bar out of a multipack
Aww the little yr 7 is so cute 🥺 can tell he’s gonna go somewhere!
It's the kids that have the energy and actual confidence to do this that make great entrepreneurs in the future.

Hey, hope you're still at this entrepreneurel stuff.

Nelson u need to find yourself some loyal customers make a lot of friends and sell for cheaper than competitors, establish yourself in this market and let the word go around that your selling, buy a pack of chewits for 1 pound and sell them for 50p each which will make you nice profit, good luck little man I was just like you

Just watched a vid with Jack in year 7 with a Syrian kid was lovely to watch
I tell you what, that bag switch was genius and that kid is going far. Full respect for the quick thinking. Shame it didn’t pull off too well still
That bag switch was immaculate
Honestly this was the more exciting part of the day making a sale.
why is this being banned? Its brilliant! their shutting in down innovative and clever children who are doing something so harmless but so skilful. These are literally the business men and women of the future. If they are worried they might move to drugs, this is the perfect time to support and encourage them in their interest for selling and teach them about how they can pursue it in a legal and bigger way.
I remember back in Year 7, me and some friends (mostly just them) would run down to the nearby Dollar store and buy some packs of sweets and other items to sell back to students at the school. Sometimes we would receive specific requests that costed extra.
Teachers should be happy they are using their initiative
When I got caught selling they said it was for "students health" yet the stuff they sell in the canteen is shocking
I might try that, my school years designated break time spot only has a couple teachers watching us
Nelson lad, don’t be shaking your blazer in the middle of the hallway😭😂😂
Who’s here after the head was fired

When??

he is so clever, woow... this kid will go far! such talented kid
I used to sell stuff at school, i really made alotta money back then easily 💯. Fun times 😂, When you are a bit famous at school you can easily get so many customers.
This is just snitching on each other lmfao
Big up Nelson for getting on his grind !
The Hustle is the Hustle. Respect it, and be rewarded.

Bring me back to when I used to sell in school. I took it one level further going to Costco and buying in bulk extra profit.
the sweets salesmen cant be forgotten, absolute british icons
4:32 ahhh🤣💀the first 2 minutes of this video was kids selling stuff and not getting caught...

Imagine if she got him in the office and asked to buy a lucozade and a pack of chewits ahaha
This looks and sounds like fun. I wish we would do that in school :/
1: concealment - keep sweets in inside blazer pockets (teachers expect bag, stop them from being stolen without force) and move around with friends to lower suspicion
2: knowledge - always but multipacks and sell them for regular price to get more sales and if multipack not available, only raise prices by a small amount
3: suspicion rates - don't have too many sweets, recommend £3-5 on sweets per day, make them small, stay away from teachers, hide the sale, stay in large crowds
4: customer knowledge - never trust older kids (if you were y7 only sell to y9 and below) if you get robbed/scammed by someone, don't let them buy from you
5: stock protection - keep stock hidden in inside blazer pocket, someone steals, run them down and punch in stomach away from teachers to get them to drop the sweets or make them vulnerable to take back, don't start a fight, just get them back and run
6: protection - keep older, bigger kids (if y7 would recommend y8-10 as they will fight to get stock back, however may want pay) get them to form a crowd whilst sale happens to keep sale hidden from teachers, always be ready to fight
7: targets - look for people who may not have gone the shop when usually do (make sure to go when people there is peak), listen for coins jingling
8: sweet selection - look for popular but cheap sweets, buy in bulk, if possible, get something rare (prime, body fuel, gatorade, etc) and sell for triple profit
3:55 “ thinks I’m thick”
Proceeds to walk the wrong way where the bag exchange was 🤦♂️
This was a great business in school. I remember doing this. Didn’t get caught tho
