Staindrop’s Make Your Mark Club is an enterprise group where the students are the real decision makers! Members from all years meet every Tuesday for a working lunch. Ran by students for students, their long-term project is a permanent outlet for small businesses within school including a stationery shop and a fair trade shop. The club is consulting architects as well as other specialists to amalgamate their ideas and make them happen. Other enterprising activity is on the horizon for Staindrop with the Mandarin Chinese classes after school, with a view to visit China in the autumn to study their business and education systems. Recently, the Geography department Make Your Markers have set up notice boards for every department to display how each department is being enterprising in it’s current activities. enterprise can be part of every subject: it’s a way of life!
