Schools - Consultancy on business links

Consultancy on educational initiatives and education - industry links

Would your staff benefit from advice on enterprise education?

Are you looking for guidance on building effective links with local businesses?

Do you need ideas for activities relating to environmental education?

Are you interested in looking at ways to incorporate financial management into lessons?

With so many initiatives and so little time many schools welcome the support, advice and guidance we can provide.

Not only will we offer advice about the key aspects of new initiatives, we tailor our guidance to the specific needs of your school, outline practical suggestions and provide support with the implementation of ideas where required.

Enterprise Education
With many years experience teaching business studies, developing business-related resources and running our own business we are ideally placed to provide practical, experience-based advice and support on ways to incorporate enterprise education into the curriculum. This is available at every school level from year 1 through to year 11.

We are able to offer ideas for Enterprise days, enterprise projects and ways of delivering enterprise education within individual subjects or topics.

Education-Industry Links
Many teachers find that presenting activities within a real-life context can help stimulate pupils' interest. Links with local and national businesses can help provide contexts for learning that might not otherwise be available.

If your school wants to develop or improve its links with industry, we can provide information about education-industry links and the organisations, grants and schemes that exist to promote such links.

We can help you to develop relationships with businesses and provide advice and guidance as to how you and your business partners can gain the most from your working relationship.

Environmental Education
We can help you to calculate your school's carbon footprint and provide advice on how to reduce it.

We can also find classroom resources and presenters for your school, that can be used to improve your pupils' awareness of environmental issues and to stimulate practical activities either within or outside the curriculum.

Financial Management
Whether you are looking for a school action plan, lesson plans, classroom resources, presenters or links with businesses, we are able to help.

We begin by discussing the nature and ethos of the school, clarifying aims and objectives, and establishing what is possible /preferable within the constraints of the curriculum. We will then provide an outline of possible practical approaches to introducing financial management to your pupils.

This support is available for all key stages.

adults (suitable for teachers, support staff and governers)

primary school children
