Stylish business ideas

Business brains from Bilton School in Rugby are today being challenged to turn on the style and get creative.

211 Year 9 students from Bilton School will be taking part in a Style Challenge Enterprise Day tomorrow (Tuesday 30th June) in an event organised by the Warwickshire Education Business Partnership.

The students are being set a challenge to design, cost, make and model an item of clothing from very limited resources. They will have to work as a team, write a business plan, and model their design on the catwalk at a fashion show at the close of the event.

This event is organised by the Warwickshire Education Business Partnership, a part of Warwickshire County Council, as their commitment towards helping students of all ages become better prepared for the world of work.
