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 get a Registration form go to Downloads.
