YES1

The Young Enterprise Scheme - YES

Although next year timetables are yet to be finalised, course selection is now finished. Any changes to student courses will now take place in January.

Course Description

Teacher in Charge: Ms J. Brodie.

The Young Enterprise Scheme (YES) is a programme committed to inspiring young people to discover their potential in business and in life. In the Level 1 YES programme, students will setup their own business team to create a product that will be made at school and sold at the school market day, Puanga Festival and from the Designery.  Business coaching will be provided every step of the way, including ideation, seed funding, pitching, design, marketing, social media and sales.  Completion of the Level 1 YES program builds a solid foundation for the Level 2 and Level 3 courses; and for entering the national Young Enterprise Scheme competition in year 12.

Students are also encouraged to select YES during WOTM.  These Level 1 assessments are the same as those offered in Commerce, therefore, students can not be enrolled in both courses.
