Philosophy The Business and Enterprise curriculum should be for all pupils We actively seek to gain qualifications which would have a work application Our courses help our pupils to be work ready and understand why they study other subject areas All staff are volunteers The scheme should be viewed as a 5 term plan All students complete one 2.5 term course and five 6 week courses Pupils choose a course which offers new skills – for instance IT students should not choose to build a website or desk top publishing Pupils make choices based on what will be of interest and useful in the future
