This week three S3 Business pupils travelled to BioCity Glasgow – Pioneer Group (Newhouse) to take part in this year’s NLC ‘Dragons Lair’ Enterprise Final 2024. They were accompanied by Mr Price (Business Education Teacher) and Mrs Johnston (Depute Head Teacher).
This is a superb initiative which introduces our young people to the world of business. Teams are responsible for coming up with a new and innovative idea for a product or service. The standard of entries was extremely high this year and the team were delighted that their business plan and idea for School Buddy had been selected as a finalist. The team scoring an impressive 93/100 by the business experts and commenting that it was a “Great business plan and a well thought through idea”.
On the day of the event the team pitched their business idea to the panel of Dragons and after all finalist teams had pitched their ideas, the ‘Dragons’ selected a winner. We did not win on this occasion, but the team can be extremely proud of their efforts in reaching the final. They were a credit to themselves, their friends and family watching and represented Team Taylor admirably.
