We are a group of 20 students from across Year 8. We are using our enterprise skills to create a gardening club and greenhouse for our school.

Students in Year 9 and above can set up their own businesses, trading in school, and there is a venture fund to support them. Our students, both past and present have gained a great deal from such activities as Young Enterprise, Year 9 Co-Op Challenge, forming their own Mini-Enterprises, Year 12 Accounting Day, to name but a few! As part of the Business Studies Department we also run an Economic Awareness club. We have lots of school businesses running, we have also created an eco-garden. We have now gone into partnership with a local business in the hospitality industry and within a social enterprise frame. Check out our website to see the press release!

We want our young people to be happy, have high expectations and aspirations and be sufficiently challenged so that they are able to achieve their potential. We are passionate about enterprise and are currently in the early stages of developing a market garden and would love to network with other schools who have experience of this!
