Business & Enterprise
Business
Are you ready to think big, innovate, and make an impact? At our school, every student in Key Stage 3 and 4 gets to dive into the exciting world of Economic Well-being and Enterprise. We believe in giving you positive and motivating opportunities to prepare you to be a confident and capable citizen.
Key Stage 3 and 4
Get ready for some serious competition! In KS3 and 4, we participate in regional Business and Enterprise days. You'll work in teams to flex your entrepreneurial muscles, culminating in thrilling "Dragons' Den" style presentations. The winners even get to battle it out against other schools in the regional finals, presenting to local business entrepreneurs!
​
We've got a track record of success! Our students have previously competed in the regional finals and even presented their projects to titans of industry like Lord Sugar, Theo Paphitis, Sir Michael Fallon, Ben McBean, and Clair Young. While we didn't win the overall final, our very own Francis Bishop scooped up the Key Stage 4 National Award for Entrepreneurial Skills, presented by Lord Sugar himself!
​
Key Stage 5
At Key Stage 5, your options expand even further! You can choose A Level Economics and Business or a BTEC National Certificate in Business. These courses are open to everyone, even if you haven't studied Business or Economics before. We offer these fantastic courses through the Stafford Partnership.
Want to get truly hands-on? Our students also have the amazing opportunity to take part in the Young Enterprise Company Programme, where you'll set up your very own company and produce goods or provide services in a real trading environment.
