Business Enterprise

Experience entrepreneurship by creating a company from scratch. Students design a business concept, build a brand, visit a local company, and pitch their ideas.

The School Group – Business Enterprise programme gives students the chance to step into the role of young entrepreneurs by creating their own company from the ground up. The course blends business English with practical enterprise skills, guiding participants through the process of developing a product or service, planning how to market it, and preparing to pitch it at the end of the week.

Students work in teams to design a business concept, build their brand, and practise communication skills essential to the professional world. They explore how businesses operate, gain insights through a visit to a local company, and apply this knowledge directly to their own projects.

By the conclusion of the programme, each team presents their company to their peers and teachers, demonstrating creativity, teamwork, and strong business communication in English.
