LEAP is a registered charity [1118612]
that enables students to set up their own companies for a
school year, learning business skills, teamwork and problem
solving, and gaining confidence and "sellable" skills. We
guarantee the students will be more confident for their university
and job interviews.
The students [14 to 17] must raise
their own share capital, choose and make or buy a product, write
a business plan and market the product. At the end of the
year they have to present their Company and its results to a panel
of Business Advisers and write an Annual Report with financial
accounts.
This process prepares them for
job and university interviews [giving them skills and confidence]
and may even help them to set up their own companies later on.
LEAP is completely run by volunteers
from schools and business and supported by local businesses. The
only charge is £150 per Company to cover insurance and CRB
checks. To
