Peter Jones, Enterprise UK, invites schools to take part in a national enterprise challenge.

The Dragon Den's star gave students a £10 loan in March and challenged them to make as much profit and social impact as possible. Over 40 students were involved in projects:

  • Year 11 Hairdressing - shampoo at PZ Cussons
  • Year 10 Hospitality - Mothering Sunday themed products including chocolates, cakes and biscuits
  • Year 8 - Picture frames, pot plants, and cakes.

All £200 raised will be put back into Salford City Academy community projects.  However, the winning team is going to be treated to a trip to Slattery's for a Chocolate Experience!

The winning teams were:

  • 1st -Yr 11 Hair & Beauty - Ellie Ryan, Abbie Page, Chantelle Wright, Amy Smith, Cerise Johnson, Amy Green
  • 2nd - Yr 10 Hospitality - Declan Robson, Leon Price, Alisha Eves, Alex Cowlishaw

Julie Larkinson, Director of Business and Enterprise said:

"It is so satisfying to gain recognition for our enterprise projects; HSBC is already on board for a new Young Enterprise Scheme next year."
