This free Awards Programme guides and support teachers and students to plan and set up real, sustainable school businesses. Students get the chance to gain hands-on experience of running a real business and generate real profits to help support their school or a social cause of their choice.

1. Generate real profits to help support their educational activities.
2. Give students the chance to gain hands-on experience of running a real business.

A school enterprise is a business that is owned by a school but that is staffed and operated by the students that attend it. Enterprises should be sustainable, selling products or services on a consistent basis (i.e. not just at a one-off event) and at least part of the profits should be reinvested in the school’s educational activities or growing the
business further.

– A Mentoring program for schools that want to receive support from a business mentor.
– A School Partnership program
