About the Opportunity: The Team Programme is Specifically designed for students with different levels of ability and learning styles, aged 15 +. Students, with your help, set up and run their own company, building skills in teamwork, and with professional support take on responsibilities for the management, production, sales, marketing and financial running of a real company.

This unique experience culminates in an illustrious celebration event in mid March where students and advisors can showcase their achievements.
