As part of Global Enterprise Week, students in P6, P7 and Years 8 & 9 have been asked to come up with an innovative business concept that will enhance people’s lives during COVID-19.  This could a product or a service.  Students will then have to present this idea using a poster and either a 30 second video or 200 word document.
