People’s Choice Award

Our Young Enterprise Team – Socair need your votes for the People’s Choice Award.

The S6 team have been working very hard all year, making their handmade jewellery and promoting positive mental well-being.  As a result of their hard work they won the regional finals in March and will be representing the school and the Renfrew region at the Scottish Finals on 1 June 2022.  One of the awards is the People’s Choice Award that is awarded to the team with the most votes from the public.

S6 Young Enterprise Scotland Sign Up

Any S6 student who is interested in participating in the Young Enterprise Programme for the coming session should join the Young Enterprise 2020-21 Microsoft Team using the joining code wxue8fs. Here I will provide further information on the programme and some of the benefits you can expect to gain from participating as well as answering any questions you may have about the programme.

Primarily the Young Enterprise scheme will involve you working as a member of a group to form a business, devise a business idea and then put it into practice – dealing with the challenges of running a business on an ongoing basis. The team are supported and guided through the process by Mrs Hamilton (Business Education) and an external Business Advisor.

The programme for the coming year will primarily, at least initially, be operated using remote operations to attend events etc. This is quite different to the way we are used to working, but as you are getting used to, it’s the way many things have to run just now.

If you intend to sign up, please note this requires real commitment from the team, for the vast majority of the coming year. Meetings will be arranged for after school – either in person or remotely, as you can appreciate this is an ever-evolving situation.
