• Junior Entrepreneur Programme (JEP)

  Mon 08 Nov 2021

  Miss Crozier’s P6/P7 class will be partaking in this year’s edition of the JEP. Running over a period of 12 weeks, JEP nurtures creativity, independence and problem-solving among pupils of all abilities, with every aspect of the programme seamlessly blending into the curriculum.

  Under Miss Crozier’s guidance, and with the inspiration of local entrepreneurs, children will discover their strengths as individuals and as part of a team. Together, they’ll choose, invest in and produce their own product or service from scratch, all the way to making it available for sale at a school-hosted JEP Showcase Day - and enjoying the profits at the end.

  Best of luck everyone!
