Bright Stars business challenge for primary schools challenges pupils to ‘Make a Difference’

Bright Stars is an exciting eight-week programme designed to introduce children in primary schools across Cumbria to leadership, entrepreneurship and the world of business. This year it is all about ‘Making a Difference’ and we are focussing on pollution within our area.  Our school is lucky to be partnered with Cumbria River Trust in the 2021 Bright Stars programme.

The programme enables the children to have an insight into key business principles like innovation, budgeting, problem solving and delivering to deadlines, while linking with core curriculum subjects such as English, maths and design & technology. It also builds confidence as they showcase hidden talents and develop new skills, nurturing creative thinking and aspirations, as well as giving them an insight into how businesses operate in their local areas.
