Young Minds at Work - 1 day 'Promotion'
This is a fun and lively interactive course that will develop some of the key transferable skills listed by Forbes that employers look for when recruiting - communication, critical thinking, multitasking, teamwork, creativity and leadership.
Pupils learn to work independently and as part of a team to design a product and create a live performance advert to promote it with all of the key information.
After leading exercises in teamwork we guide them step by step through business theory and processes covering product development and design, branding, pricing, and deciding on a suitable sales outlet.
They complete all the components of a business plan for their product before they focus on the principles of promotion. The teams then create an advert which they all participate in and perform at the end of the day and a winner is selected according to a list of required criteria.
The winners receive LifeLab Entrepreneur badges and a winning team certificate is given to the school.
The school also receives an impact report showing learning that has taken place based on questionnaires that the pupils fill in and a certificate to say that they have provided enterprise education to their pupils in conjunction with Lifelab.
This is all achieved within the day with no outside work.
Here you can find what we provide for the pupils and the school.
