The Business Studies team was awarded with a £1,000 prize for Creativity and Innovation at the National Muslim Teachers Awards.

This money was invested in a pioneering enterprise project; where Business and Enterprise students were divided into teams and given a £40 start-up capital. As a part of their course, they were required to create a real business plan based on a unique idea, which fills a gap in the market.

Through our partnership with Town & Country Markets we secured 5 stalls in the Luton Town Market, where students sold were able to sell their products to a wider market.

An enterprising day to understand the importance of finance in the world of work. The students form themselves into banking businesses, elect their directors and design a finance board game to inform and educate young people about the highs and lows of managing money. At the same time they run a marketing campaign to deter young people from getting into debt. The programme aims to be highly motivational and challenges teams of Year 10 students from a variety of local secondary schools to compete against each other to be the best banking business.
