... the most exciting initiative in Enterprise Eduction we have seen for some time and I would recommend it to any school that wants to provide young people with real life business skills.

uBizEE are proud to offer our brand new "Enterprise Game", a flexible enteprise provision, delivered within school and aimed at KS4 and young adult students of all abilities. This exciting course is designed to give students a flavour of what it is like to run a real business, with all of the information, figures and situations faced by student groups based on real business experiences. The course centres around the production of commercial quality full colour photographic prints wrapped onto wooden frames and the students have the opportunity to produce these products for themselves.

The aim of the game is for each student team to manage their business in order to maximise their profit, and the winners will be the team that reaches the end of the virtual trading period with the most points. Points are awarded throughout the game, and are based on the decision making, and performance in numerous tasks of the team members.

Students will develop awarenes of and / or skills in:

• Business Finances
• Competition
• Pricing
• Decision Making
• Working in a team
• Making judgements
• Communication
• Leadership
• Working to Deadlines
• Problem Solving
• Utilising Resources
• Presentation Skills
• Preparing a financial quotation
• QCA WRL Framework Elements 1,2,7,8 and 9
