Our
contribution: |
In Sheffield, Sero works with the Local Enterprise Growth Initiative branded ‘BiG Make it Your Business on the education programme which is now being expanded across all of Sheffield’s secondary schools, academies and colleges. Our contribution includes: supporting post-16 providers in embedding enterprise in vocational learning, co-ordinating the city wide BiG Challenge competition and awards ceremony, developing links between enterprise education and the 14-19 Diplomas, as well as providing a range of creative communications for participants.
As part of our programme to support people in business, we need to encourage enterprise and entrepreneurship from a young age. The pupils in local schools and colleges could go on to be the city’s business leaders. By getting young people involved in business and encouraging them to be enterprising, we can show pupils that it can be fun and exciting being an entrepreneur.
