Helping students to run their own enterprises and mini businesses helps them develop their skills and knowledge using real life situations. At Sir Thomas Boughey our students have a number of mini enterprise groups. All our groups work as mini co-operatives. This allows them to develop deeper understanding of issues such as democracy and equality. As all our group follow the basic co-operative principle of one person one vote, rather than the majority shareholding way, they have to learn how to work with other people and how to get the most out of each person in the group to ensure success.
We work with both the Young Co-operatives Enterprise Organisation and Young Enterprise.
Senior Group
Our senior group usually enters for the
local Young Enterprise Competition and has, over the years, been highly
successful. Various projects have been tried
over the years. The work of one previous group APE can
be viewed here.

This year's Young Co-operators are working on a number of projects including the sale of items to raise funds for small developing co-operative enterprses in South Africa and Lesotho.
