CASE is part of a whole school approach to employability.

CASE is now an established programme that is regularly repeated across whole year groups in many schools. It has been used with Years 7, 8 and 9 and particularly Year 10 students.

It is used to meet a range of enterprising needs across the curriculum.

Teambuilding and raising selft-esteem are central to the CASE process.

Students create their own mini enterprise, forming their own business and take responsibility for all aspects:

• Planning and researching
• Borrowing money and buying materials
• Making, marketing and advertising their product or service
• Selling their product/service at a trade fair and raising money for charity
  
  Debriefing, evaluation and celebrating the experience takes place at the end.
