Young Enterprise

Year 12 and 13 students can take part in the Young Enterprise programme as an extra-curricular activity or alternatively Year 13 students may choose to take Business Studies as part of their Level 3 programme.  As part of this programme students take part in the regional and national competitions available, striving for prizes available to both themselves and the school.

Young Enterprise involves students in establishing their own company, complete with directors and share capital.  They develop a product or service, incorporating market research, and complete a business plan.  They then arrange the cost effective production of their product or service and sell in 'real world' markets.  At the end of their trading activities they prepare an Annual Report and conduct winding up activities that include submission of a tax return to Young Enterprise Trust and distribution of final dividends and capital.

Napier Girls' High School companies have performed well in the national competition.
