Bellshill Academy pupils are attending the Dragons’ Lair Event which is an initiative aimed at encouraging innovation and entrepreneurship in young people. It seeks to introduce them to the world of business, its importance to the economy and as a possible career option they may not have considered. The initiative is aimed at all S3 pupils in North Lanarkshire schools. We have a team of enthusiastic young learners who are representing Bellshill Academy; Uzair Sharif, Elle Gavin and Amy Hoskins.
