Event description
Introduction to Enterprise
This is an all day event for year 8 and if it's possible to stay on after an initial talk we would love it if you wanted to spend the day as an enterprise coach. Students will spend lessons 1 & 2 coming up with business ideas… then lesson 3 & 4 presenting them in a marketplace style activity…. Then lesson 5 evaluating. We are looking for entrepreneurs who have experience of starting their own business or innovating within businesses to talk to students about what they need to think about and to help with judging ideas.
