Hucklow’s Business and Enterprise Project

Story:Ahmir Hussain

Move over Alan Sugar and Richard Branson, new entrepreneurs are in town!

Hucklow school pupils are working on a major enterprise project, aiming to learn the key skills required to plan, design and produce products, which will then be sold at the forthcoming Hucklow market.

The children initially complete business plans and then have to pitch their business idea in Dragon's Den style to the school's very own Hilary Devey, Headteacher Mrs Arnold. She will then decide whether to grant them the funding they require to produce their products and come back to her with a profit.

The products range from designer T-shirts, key rings and personalised mugs to children designing their own jelly babies (a joint venture with Cadburys). Parents will have the opportunity to visit the market and purchase the products.
